In addition, the Music Department offers courses for Aquinas students who wish to broaden their appreciation and understanding of music through study or participation in one of the performing ensembles.
Private lessons are also available.
The Theory Placement Test is given at the beginning of each semester for students who may already qualify to pass out of this level. The Music Students' Handbook, which should be obtained from the Art and Music Center office, contains further information and specific requirements for students of music. At least 30 semester hours of music must be taken at Aquinas College for the music major. All music majors must have a grade of B- or better in all applied courses. Foreign language study is also recommended and is required in the core curriculum.
