Revised September 2013
The degree Bachelor of Music in Vocal Performance is 122 hours, not
including remedial coursework. The student should understand that dropping,
failing, or having to retake any coursework will make it difficult to graduate in
four years. Students should attempt to pass the piano proficiency by the
end of the fourth semester. Continuous enrollment in piano class or AMUS 1231
must be maintained each semester until the piano proficiency is completed. No
grade below C in the major area will be accepted towards graduation. Music
courses are not offered during the summer terms, so it is recommended that
students take core classes during those terms as needed. Advanced electives
must be MUSC 3xxx level or above.
