Four-Year Plan: Music


Sample Four-Year Plan of Study 2021-2022

The following are sample plans of course requirements to complete the Music major in four years or eight semesters.

  • Each student’s experience will vary slightly, as these plans do not include transfer work or credit for prior learning (such as Advanced Placement-AP).
  • Math, English, and Reading placement is primarily determined by high school performance and confirmed by on-site assessment.
    • If fundamental courses are required, they should be taken within the first year.
  • All courses listed are three semester hours unless indicated otherwise.

NOTE: Four-year plans assume the student is prepared to take the courses listed. If prerequisites are required, additional semester hours may be required to complete the degree.
