3.8.2 SCHOOL REGULATIONS

1) Advanced Standing Examinations:<|> Upon admission to the Faculty of Arts, a student may petition the Director of the School to write advanced standing examinations in 32-112, 32-113, 32-212, 32-213, 32-222, 32-223, 32-322, and 32-323.

2) Program Approval: B.Mus., B.F.A. Music Theatre, B.Mus.Th., B.A. Combined Honours, and B.M.A. students must have their programs approved by the School of Music prior to registration. All applications for graduation will be subject to approval by the Director of the School and the Dean of Arts, and such approval will be granted only when the academic program completed is identical with that previously approved by the academic advisor in consultation with the student.

3) Keyboard Proficiency Requirement: Keyboard skill is a valuable tool for learning in all aspects of music, but especially in theory, electronic music, computer-assisted instruction, role preparation, and voice. Students are required to demonstrate that they have this skill by meeting the keyboard proficiency requirement set by the School. The requirement should be met early in the student's program. The School does not offer beginning keyboard courses, but will help students plan to meet this requirement.

4) Recital Attendance Policy: The School of Music holds the view that attendance at a significant number of live musical performances will broaden a student's musical experience and thus enhance and contribute to the potential for academic success. Therefore, a Recital Attendance Policy has been developed, embracing outside music events in addition to recitals and special events offered by the School of Music. This policy applies to all full-time students in the B.Mus., B.Mus.Th., and B.M.A. programs during each year of registration. Details for the current academic year (i.e., number of concerts and other events to be attended) are announced during the first week of classes in September.

Failure to meet the requirements of this policy may result in the student's being placed on probation. Failure to meet the requirement while on probation may result in the student being required to withdraw from the music program. A student who fails to meet the requirement in the year of expected graduation will have graduation delayed until the requirement has been met.

4) Limitation on 100-Level Courses: Of the total number of courses required in any degree program offered by the School, not more than fourteen may be at the 100 level.

These courses are available to Bachelor of Music, Bachelor of Musical Arts, Bachelor of Fine Arts (Music Theatre), Bachelor of Music Therapy, and Bachelor of Arts (Combined Honours with Music) students with the approval of their academic advisor in Music. These students will elect their major instrument at the time of their admission; for study on a second instrument, an audition on that instrument is required.

Subject to availability, these courses are open to other students upon successful completion of a qualifying audition. It is the responsibility of the student to arrange for a qualifying audition by contacting the School of Music not later than the end of the first week of classes. Students who fail to do so will relinquish their right to attend such classes and must complete the normal procedure for dropping a course as outlined on the "Course Change Form."
