Transfer Students

The Music Department encourages transfer students to take the core curriculum placement examination and seek academic counseling before transfer. Transfer students with some background in music theory normally test into music 14 (offered Winter and Spring) or into 30A, which is only offered fall quarter. Students who test into course 13 or 14 take one or both of these courses in their first year in order to prepare to enroll in course 30A the following fall. Transfer students who have completed all of their general education requirements and who test into 30A upon transfer may be able to complete the music major in two years.

B.A. transfer students should note that upon completion of course 100A, they need to perform on a musical instrument or voice at an upper-intermediate level. Prospective students wishing to have their performance skill level assessed by faculty in preparation for entry to the program may send a tape for faculty review.

B.M. transfer students should prepare to audition in the fall quarter after enrollment. (For audition requirements, see the B.M. Major) In certain cases, some or all of the applied music requirement may be waived based on prior course work.
