Practice Rooms, Lockers, Keys, Instrument Rentals
All enrolled Oberlin students have use of Robertson Hall practice rooms on a first-come, first-served basis during normal building hours.
Assigned practice rooms
Some students taking secondary lessons for credit may also receive an assigned practice room, but students must be registered for at least two credits. Practice rooms and keys are assigned by the third week of classes by Julie Baker, x56633.
Lockers
Due to limited availability, lockers are reserved for Conservatory students. If you have questions regarding lockers, please contact Heather Martin, x55282.
Instrument rental
Instrument rental is available for some instruments. Please contact Kaylee Mayer, x58272, for details.
- Students must submit an official online Secondary Lesson Application each semester prior to requesting instrument rental.
- Larger instruments are issued by the Conservatory and stored in a shared practice room for secondary lessons. (Students seeking secondary lessons in jazz percussion should not bring a drum set to school.)
- Storage space is limited and most non-majors will find it necessary to store their instruments in their residence hall room.
Additional information about dress codes, practice rooms, keys, and locker assignments is available on the Conservatory Policies and Procedures page.
