3 - BMusEd applied major; BMus applied major (comprehensive, music history, music theory or composition concentration)
2 - BEd, BMus minor or other.
The third digit indicates the semester of study at a particular level.

Participation in an ensemble may be required of students enrolled in an applied music lesson.

Prerequisite: Permission of Music Department.

Students should note that:

• Students in the third through eighth semesters in the BMus degree program concentration in performance receive 3 hours of credit for the applied major lesson. All others receive 2 hours of credit.

• Students should not register for the second, third, or fourth year of study without having received credit for the previous year or advanced standing from the Music Department.

• Unless there are extenuating circumstances, no student may enroll for more than the regular sequence of eight semesters (for BMus) or seven semesters (for BMusEd) of applied music lessons.

• For students in the BMus and BMusEd programs applied lessons in a secondary area are dependent upon the availability of regular, full-time faculty and the permission of the department head.

• Students in the BMus and BMusEd degree programs will not receive credit towards their degree program for applied lessons in the MUXX 121 series in the primary applied area.
