Forms and Information for Current Students

For Music Majors

Did you know that:
1. It is expected that music majors should practice a minimum of one hour each day for each semester hour of private instruction and that some intructors may require more than that? Note: One credit lessons required for music education and liberal studies concentrations; two credits for performance).

2. One hour of lecture assumes 2 hours of outside work done on your own?

3. Ensemble participation will presume that practicing will take place outside of rehearsal, as needed or assigned?

These and other important expectations are found in  "the Handbook."
The Handbook for undergraduate music majors is designed to make undergraduate majors and minors aware of standard music program policies and procedures. You should become familiar with it as an entering freshman. We also recommend that re-read before each advising appointment just to make sure you are on track and aware of departmental expectations and requirements for upperclassmen.

For Music Education Majors, in particular
The Music Education Student Handbook (M.E.S.H.)  explains the course requirements and general expectations of the Music Education program at ASPU. The M.E.S.H outlines the course sequences for the music education concentration for keyboard, instrumental, and vocal specializations.
