Three to four semester hours in the secondary applied have been set aside in each B.M. curriculum (2 semester hours for the B.A. in Music) for this purpose. Should the proficiency be passed before completion of the 3-4 hours of piano, the non-piano concentrations may take the remaining hours in any applied elective or performance ensemble. Piano concentrations must pass a sophomore screening and MUSC 259, which fulfill the piano proficiency requirement.
Each music major is required to satisfactorily participate in a major performing group each Fall and Spring semester while enrolled as a full-time student, except the student teaching semester. A minimum of four semesters of satisfactory participation in a performing group is required for part-time students. A student who requires more than eight semesters to complete a program may make a written request to the Chair of the Department of Fine Arts for exemption from participation in a performance group after ten hours of performance organization credit have been acquired.
Students must enroll in a performance group according to their concentration with the exception of Sacred Music: 4 hours of a major vocal performing ensemble and four hours in a major performing ensemble according to Concentration.
Additionally, all music majors must complete a minimum of one hour in a chamber ensemble.
Students entering as music majors or minors are required to take a Music Theory Placement Exam prior to the first week of class to gauge their level of theoretical competence. A first-time music major will be placed either in the sequence of MUSC 105-106 (First-Year) or MUSC 103-104 (Basic Theory) according to exam results. Transfer music major placement is based on results following an exam which covers material from the last semester of music theory completed by the student.

Art Survey is required but may be used to fulfill a core requirement which would allow the art minor to have 6 elective hours. If 225 is used only to fulfill requirements for the minor, the student has 3 hours of electives. *Senior Exhibit and Portfolio with Artist's Statement is required.
A minor in Music requires 18 semester hours including Music 105, 106; 4 semesters of a major performing organization (4 hours); and 6 hours of applied music (Jury required). The music minor may substitute MUSC 247 (Fundamentals of Conducting) for one of the applied hours. At least four hours of applied music must be in the same area of applied concentration. Recital attendance is required (of the number of recitals required for music majors) during the semester in which applied music credit is being earned toward the minor (see Music Handbook).
Courses are offered in the field of music to train the student in the essentials of musicianship; to guide the student in the integration of the art of music with the art of living; to coordinate the musical activities of the student in order that both sacred and secular music may be maintained at a high standard of quality; and to prepare the student for graduate or professional training, a teaching career, or the ministry of music in churches.
