finalists of their eligibility for the Final Round by telephone

in the competition within a week, in order to compete in the Final
Round at Skidmore College on April 10, 2010. |
| The final round of
the competition is on one day only (April 10th). No finalist will
be judged on any other day. Only finalists who perform in the hall
that day will be judged. This is an "open" competition and we invite
all finalists and their families into the hall to hear and to observe.
Neither recording nor photography of the competition is allowed

| Following the Final
Round of the competition, the judges will select up to four winners.
Additionally, judges will select a number of finalists for honorable
mention. In the event that a winner does not accept a scholarship,
it will be offered it to a student who received an honorable mention
rating. |

Department of Music oversee and participate in the judging of the
competition. The judges' decisions are final and we reserve the
right to name fewer winners if four do not qualify. |

it will be made within one week of the Final Round. |
