AYP-YSO-01 - UNH Youth Symphony Orchestras
Course Description
The University of New Hampshire Youth Symphony Orchestra (UNH-YSO) has provided quality orchestral experiences to string students in the NH seacoast region, southern Maine, and northeastern Massachusetts since 2013. By providing quality musical instruction and high standards of rigor, the UNH-YSO seeks to help students in Grades 4-12 develop their technical capabilities and musical understanding.
Please Note: The UNH-YSO is a pre-admission program. Only students who have completed an audition and received an offer of placement in the program may enroll. All students must audition each year, including returning members. DO NOT enroll and pay here without first completing an audition, as tuition payments are non-refundable. To schedule an audition, please email david.upham@unh.edu
Additional information including program drop off and pick up locations are sent directly from program staff. Youth Symphony Orchestras do not offer refunds.

Online Registration Instructions: Review before enrolling for the best outcome. Family Accounts are recommended for enrolling multiple children from one family in any UNH Youth Program. If you already have an account in our system, you will be asked to log into either a Family or Student Account after adding the program to your shopping cart. Be sure to use the username and password for the type of account you wish to log into. We recommend attempting to log into the student or family account before enrollment opens as this will minimize difficulty and time while enrolling. Email youth.programs@unh.edu if you need assistance recovering your account information. Do not create a new account if you have one already.
If you don't have an account already, you can set up an account at any time, even before you begin the registration process. If creating a new Student/Individual account, the account must be in the name of the child, but the email address provided in the profile should be that of a parent/legal guardian.
CampDoc: UNH has partnered with CampDoc to quicken the enrollment process. Enrollments and payments will still be done here through our current enrollment system, but no registration questions will be required at that time. Within a few days of enrolling, the email provided in the student/family account will receive an email prompting completion of the registration questions.
Due to very brief timelines between enrollment and the program start date, it is important that a parent/guardian respond to the CampDoc email and complete the registration questions promptly. Even if the student already has a CampDoc account, a parent/guardian will need to log into the student's account to complete any necessary questions for this program, and to review and re-sign some waivers.
A participant’s CampDoc profile must be 100% complete before they can attend the program.
