Campus Access Policies

Are You Cleared For Campus Access?

AMDA’s New York and Los Angeles campuses are open to cleared alumni for individual rehearsal use and library access. To utilize alumni benefits on campus, alumni must present a valid Alumni ID upon entry.

All Alumni IDs issued prior to March 2020 have been deactivated and new IDs can only be requested once alumni are cleared for campus access. To begin the clearance process for campus access, alumni should submit a Campus Access Clearance Form and wait for further instruction.

General Information

Reserving a Rehearsal or Voice Studio

Rehearsal and Voice Studios are designed to offer support, when available, for audition preparations or independent practice/rehearsal. They are not designed for group projects or outside productions. Use of AMDA Rehearsal and Voice Studios is a privilege that extends only to AMDA alumni. NON-AMDA affiliated participants cannot be approved for campus access.

Only alumni who have received a confirmation of clearance are eligible for campus access. Cleared alumni should reserve Rehearsal and Voice Studios through the AMDA Campus Portal before visiting campus. Studios are available on a first-come, first-served basis. Priority is always given to current students and faculty.

Alumni should make every effort to reserve Rehearsal and Voice Studios prior to coming to campus through the Student Portal. Studio reservations can only be made up to 1 day prior to your visit and are limited to 2 hours total per day - 1 hour in a Rehearsal Studio + 1 hour in a Voice Studio. You will not be able to book a room if the duration is longer than 1 hour.

Communicating With AMDA Faculty or Staff

AMDA alumni should communicate with Alumni Services to pre-arrange a meeting with a faculty or staff member by emailing alumniservices@amda.edu. Alumni Services will forward notes, e-mails, telephone messages, etc. to the respective faculty/staff.

Alumni IDs

Please submit the form below to request a new or replacement Alumni ID. Alumni IDs will be issued to eligible graduates only. If you have not completed your program or have any holds on your account (academic or financial), you will not be eligible for an Alumni ID. Please allow 7-10 business days to process your request.

All alumni benefits and privileges require an Alumni ID including campus access for individual rehearsal use and library visitation.

If you have any questions, contact alumniservices@amda.edu.
