[1] The large ensemble requirement is based upon requirements for the student’s original major.
The requirement remains the same as the original major, except in
cases where 8 semesters were required. With approval of their studio teachers, these MUA majors may petition the MUA Supervisory Committee to take only 7
semesters of large ensemble if it allows a significant enhancement of their MUA program of study.
[2] This 4 credit elective requirement may be used to enhance the student’s concentration, and should be chosen in consultation with the MUA advisor.
[3] In addition to FWS 121, the MUA majors must take at least 24 credits of humanities/science courses and 3 credits of 200-level music academic elective courses.
They must choose an additional 3 credits of coursework in one of these two areas.
MUA students will design a concentration of at least 12 credits, approved by the
MUA Supervisory Committee, to be drawn from these elective courses.
[4] With approval of their studio teachers, MUA majors may petition to take only 7 semesters of primary lessons if their MUA program of study necessitates a semester
out-of-residence (e.g. internship, study abroad).
However, the senior recital must take place during the last semester of lessons at Eastman.
All students will present a
full senior recital, with requirements based upon the student’s major instrument.
[5] One semester of study may be out of residence (e.g.: internship, study abroad, etc.).
Any academic courses not completed at ESM must be pre-approved by the
