Note for Applied Music courses:

For information on sections, requirements, and costs, consult the music department.

Instruction is given in 14 individual lessons per semester, either one half-hour lesson per week (1 credit hour) or one full-hour lesson per week (2 or more credit hours). Lessons are not made up unless instructor is notified a reasonable time in advance of the excused absence.

Registration for lessons and choice of teachers must be approved by the department chair.

Assignment and admission to these courses are based on tests and auditions given by the department during the advising and registration period. Applied music courses cannot be audited or taken CR/NC.
