Program Regulations

  1. Students in the Honours BMus program are normally registered full-time throughout; for part-time registration the following regulations apply:
    1. All first and second year music requirements of the student's program must be completed or in progress when the student enrols in MU290.
    2. Individual tuition (MU190*, MU290*, MU390*, MU490*) must be taken in consecutive years.
    3. Rule (a) takes precedence over rule (b) but if rule (b) is broken, the student must successfully complete an audition before resuming individual tuition.

  2. Students entering the Honours BMus program must take a piano proficiency test prior to the beginning of classes. If the faculty deems it necessary, registration in MU196P (piano proficiency) is required in first year.
  3. Failure to obtain the required standards in any year of the program will necessitate withdrawal from the program.
  4. Students in specialized programs (church music, composition, music history, performance, and theory) must at the end of each year be recommended by the faculty in order to continue in those programs.
  5. A student who satisfies the requirements for a musical skills course by placement examination must take a music elective in its place. Before registering in MU388º, a student must complete the final examination for MU287º with a minimum grade of B-.
  6. Students in BMus Performance programs may take MU195, MU295, and MU395 as Music electives. Students in all other BMus programs may credit MU195 or MU295 or MU395 as a Music elective. Any two of these courses may be substituted for MU490A*.
  7. Non-music general major or minor: students may, in consultation with the department concerned, elect to organize their non-music electives to meet the requirements for a minor or general major. (See regulations governing Minors and General Major programs in the Faculty of Arts or Science chapter.)
  8. For the Progression/Graduation Requirements
    and Probation regulations, see the University Regulations chapter.
