Students can take a performance course for one semester without any pre-reqs.
The 100 Exemption Exam is given at the beginning of each semester. Performance study for beginners is offered only to declared music majors with the exception of the areas of voice and historic instruments. Actually, the majority of students enrolled in performance study are not majors or minors. No refunds of fees are allowed for students who drop a performance course after the 10th academic day. Music lesson fees are waived for declared music majors and minors.
