Policies and Procedures

All students must follow the Oregon Ambassadors of Music policies and procedures related to participation in the tour. Some documents will require signatures to confirm students and parents understand and agree to every aspect of joining and participating in the tour.

INITIAL PROCEDURE FOR JOINING THE TOUR

To join our 2026, the student must be nominated by their school music teacher, private teacher, community leader, or by participating in a regional or state honor ensemble.
Once nominated as stated above, the student and their parents/guardians must attend one of our informational meetings (in person or Zoom). Visit our "Meetings" page.
After you have attended a meeting, the next step is to visit our "Apply" page and complete the OAM initial application.
After you have completed your initial application to OAM, you must pay the OAM non-refundable deposit. Visit our "Deposit and Tour Payments" page and pay with PayPal link.
After you have completed the initial application and paid the OAM deposit, OAM managers will be in contact with you to confirm receipt of the application and deposit. You will receive information in those emails on next steps to take with MCI (partner company) to complete the rest of your tour payments.
After you have successfully completed Steps 1-5, download and follow our Student Checklist (this will be linked to several pages of our website) for future to-do items, read all emails from OAM, and continue to engage with our website for all updated information, announcements, rehearsal information, tour information, and planning/what to expect.
