Courses counted toward a major in music (i.e., MUS 111 , MUS 112 , MUSL 111 , MUSL 112 ) cannot be counted toward completion of minor requirements. Six additional hours of electives may be chosen to fulfill minor requirements for music majors.

A minimum final grade of “C-” is required in each music course and an overall GPA of “C” (2.00) or better is required in courses counted toward the minor. Admission to the program requires approval by the Department of Music and an audition in the major performance medium.
