IOMR holds free online course 'camps' eight times a year, awarding a select few prospective students 100% free content. Our one-day program lifts the hood and takes a revealing look at one specific topic. The three-day camp allows for two topics and slightly more interactive project work. Finally, our one-week camps give those enrolled ample time to prepare, execute and receive feedback on a real world project.
Music lovers, band members, home recorders, songwriters & singers. Any prospective students that would like an opportunity to experience how we operate our online sessions before signing up for a curriculum.
Students will work along with our amazing instructors and in some cases, guest musicians. See below for a list of camps.

In order to further help student costs, IOMR awards 16 quarter grants and 4 full curriculum grants per year. Students who are selected receive funds to pay for either one or more quarters (or even all 5 quarters in some cases) with absolutely no expectation to pay it back. The course load is fully covered, allowing for complete relief of costs as the student continues their audio education.
Prospective students that have excelled in an online sampler 'camp'. Students that are grading high in an already existing full or custom curriculum load. Curious new-comers in conversation with the admissions team.
Students that combine awarded grants with loan funding are set on the fastest path to begin without having to pay until months into their course load. Students that perform well, grade high or write profound submission essays are first considered.
IOMR awards up to 50 interest free loans per year to prospective and active students seeking financial relief. This allows them to begin their coarse load without any upfront costs. First payments are not due until months into their active coarse load and never pile on extra costs beyond the basic fees.
