Change of Major
A student wishing to transfer from one degree program of study at the University (or school) to another program must file a Change of Major form in the Office of the Registrar. The student must meet the standards for admission into the desired program and must obtain written permission from the department involved. Any courses which were initially accepted for transfer credit from another college are subject to re-evaluation by the department to which the student transfers internally.
Choral Placement
Choral placement is determined by results of auditions (voice quality,sight singing,pitch memory) which are held in the spring of each year for returning students,and in the fall for new students. Students placed in a choir are expected to remain in that ensemble for two semesters,then move to an ensemble with a higher number (e.g.:CHO 211 to CHO 311). Conflicts should be addressed to the chair of the Vocal/Choral department.
Course Sequences
It is expected that students will take the same levels of Theory and Aural Activities during the same semester. However,under no circumstances will students be allowed to take a higher level of A.A. than that of Theory completed (e.g. they may not take Theory I and A.A.II). If necessary,the reverse is possible (e.g. they may take Theory II and A.A.I). Students may not lag more than one semester behind in Aural Activities.
English and Math courses should be taken before the completion of 64 credits
Music History I (MHL210)must be taken before enrolling in Music History II (MHL211).
Conducting I must be taken before Conducting II.
The professional sequence in Music Education is: MUE 331 and MUE 333 (or 335),then MUE 332 and MUE 335 (or 333),then MUE 431/432 (Student Teaching,in the senior year). These courses must be taken in three consecutive semesters. A meeting is held for sophomores to determine whether the student will begin the professional sequence in the first or second semester of the junior year.
Elective Private Lessons
If the workload of the professor allows,elective lessons may be requested. To register for lessons,see the chairperson of the department in which the course is taught. Elective private lessons for music majors are automatically rolled-over to the next semester by the computer. Students not planning to continue in an elective private lesson should see the appropriate chairperson during drop/add period to remove the course.
