All music concentration courses are offered by the faculty of the Music Division at the School for the Arts. The minimum total of prerequisite and principal courses required for the concentration is the equivalent of eight semester courses in the College of Arts and Sciences. All of the School for the Arts courses listed below may be taken for transfer credit in the College of Arts and Sciences. However, any 3-credit School for the Arts course must be supplemented by an additional project if a student wishes to receive 4 credits for the course in the College of Arts and Sciences. Students electing the music concentration may take up to eight credits of applied music toward the degree.
Eligibility is determined by audition and faculty availability.
All music concentrators must complete CAS LF 212 or CAS LG 212, or demonstrate equivalent proficiency. Students who intend to go on to graduate school in music are urged to prepare themselves in a second foreign language. Prior consultation with advisors is recommended. A minor in music consists of 20 credits. An additional 12 credits in music are selected with the approval of the advisor for music minors.
