2000-2999 sophomores and juniors
3000-3999 juniors and seniors
4000-4999 seniors

Music

The student earning a degree, major, or minor in music will register for credit in a primary instrument each semester required by the program. In addition, the student will register for a secondary instrument, as required each semester, until the proficiency exam is passed. See the degree outlines for required credit and the Music Department Handbook for guidance in meeting performance standards. Course Numbering System: The first digit indicates the level or year of study. 1 = Freshman, 2 = Sophomore, 3 = Junior, 4 = Senior. All Primary courses are fixed credit 2 hours. All Secondary courses are fixed credit 1 hour. Applied Music courses are repeatable for credit.
