ADVISEMENT AND REGISTRATIONAdvisement procedures are as follows: All advisement information and materials will be posted on CANVAS prior to advisement. All students who have fewer than 90 hours earned will have an individual advisingappointment with a faculty advisor. Advisement is optional for seniors ( 90 hours earned). Detailed instructions for scheduling advisement appointments will be posted in CANVAS.All students will register for classes on-line through BearWeb. Time Tickets for earlyregistration will be posted in the student’s BearWeb account.Advanced PlacementStudents seeking to place out of freshman theory or musicianship have three options:1. Credit by Baylor Exam-- receive credit for 1301 and/or 1101 by scoring 80 or higher on1301/1101 final exams.2. Credit by AP Exam-- receive credit for 1301 and/or 1101 by scoring a 4 or higher on theCollege Board Advanced Placement Music Theory Exam. Credit for 1101 also requires ascore of 80 or higher on the 1101 Final Exam. No fee is required other than the fee for theAP Test itself.3. Advanced Placement Without Credit-- place ahead in theory or musicianship by scoring 80or higher on final exam(s). No fee is required. The student must make up the missed hoursby taking a more advanced theory course later in his/her course of study.For information on the Advanced Placement Test, contact Jana Marak, Baylor’s Office of InstitutionalResearch & Testing, 710-2061. To schedule a 1301 or 1101 final exam, contact the Academic StudiesDivision, 710-2360. Credit by examination policies are available at www.baylor.edu/irt/testing.Applied MusicApplied music refers to the study of the performance of an instrument or the voice, either as amajor, concentration, or elective. The maximum amount of credit that can be earned in one appliedmusic subject in any one semester is 6 semester hours. No student may be registered for more thanone section of a given applied music subject in a semester. The maximum total amount of credit thatcan be earned in applied music in one semester is 8 semester hours.In a summer session term, 5 hours of private instruction are given for one hour of credit, and 10hours of instruction are given for 2 hours of credit. The maximum credit that can be earned in asummer term in one subject of applied music is 2 semester hours. The maximum total applied musiccredit that can be earned in one summer session term is 3 semester hours. Applied music courses are7
open in summer sessions to MM/MDiv students or students in their primary applied concentration andonly with the approval of the Associate Dean for Academic Affairs.Credit earned for applied music study may not be used to satisfy degree requirements untilcandidate is officially admitted to the School of Music. All applied music course numbers have fourelements as follows:The first digit indicates the division: (level of study)1-Lower division3-Upper division5-GraduateThe second digit indicates the amount of credit in semester hours.The third is the letter which indicates the instrument ingsK-KeyboardV-VoiceThe fourth digit identifies the instrument within the nW5-SaxophoneRegistration for MUS 12B1 would register the student for a lower division (1),2 credit hour (2) course in trumpet (B-brass, 1-trumpet).To schedule major applied lessons, a student should meet with his or her applied music teacherduring the first week of classes. In the vocal and keyboard divisions, a list of teacher assignments willbe posted on the door of the divisional office during the first week of class.Final exams for applied music subjects, called juries, consist of a brief performance before acommittee of faculty members in the division. These exams are held during finals week each semester.Sign-up sheets are posted several days prior to the day of the exam. Jury requirements vary fromdepartment to department. Students should check with their applied music instructor for more detailedinformation regarding juries. In addition to regular juries, a variety of divisional exams are required foradvancement to upper levels or as prerequisites for recitals in some degrees. These exams replacejuries for the semester in which they are given.Applied class instruction subjects are:1131Class piano (level Is, music majors only)1132Class piano (level IIs, music majors only)1133Class piano (level IIIs, music majors only)8
1124Class voice (generally for non-vocal performance majors)1125Class piano (non-music majors only)Auditing CoursesStudents who wish to take a course without earning academic credit may be eligible to audit thecourse with the written permission of the dean of the appropriate academic unit. There is a fee of 300.00 for auditing a course if the student is enrolled in less than 12 hours. There is no additional feefor students enrolled in 12 hours or more. Courses taken for audit may not exclude a student seekingcredit, may not be repeated at a later date for credit, may not be changed in status after the registrationperiod, and are not considered part of the course load. Laboratory and applied courses may not beaudited.Change of Degree / ConcentrationStudents who wish to change a degree, major, or an area of concentration within the School ofMusic must have approval from the faculty of the current degree/concentration, as well as approvalfrom the faculty of the degree/concentration to which the student wishes to change. Students shouldobtain a “Change of Major in the School of Music” form from the Undergraduate Academic ProgramsManager office (RG 113), or SOM website, and secure the necessary faculty signatures afterauditioning or petitioning for the new degree or area of concentration. The form should then besubmitted to the Associate Dean for Academic Affairs of the School of Music for final approval. Astudent’s change of degree/area of concentration is not recorded officially in the student records officeuntil after approval of the Associate Dean has been secured. (A sample form is included in theAppendix of this handbook and the School of Music website under Current Students.)Future Course RotationsSome music courses are not offered every semester; therefore, it is important to plan ahead inscheduling these courses and progressing toward degree completion. At the end of the sophomoreyear, students should set a tentative graduation date and then make a semester-by-semester plan forcompleting all remaining degree requirements. It is also important to note courses which areprerequisites to other courses.A partial listing of courses which are degree requirements and are not offered every semesteris listed below:MUS 1111MUS 1112MUS 1113MUS 1114MUS 1115MUS 1116MUS 1117Flute/Saxophone MethodsOboe/Bassoon MethodsClarinet MethodsTrumpet/Horn MethodsTrombone, Baritone, Tuba MethodsStrings , odd # years

Students taking these courses should check with their academicadvisor before including these courses in a long-term degree plan. (A copy of the Music HistoryRotation is included in the appendix of this handbook.)Course SequencesAcademic StudiesMusic Theory - The freshman and sophomore theory and musicianship sequences aredesigned to complement one another—Theory I should be taken concurrently withMusicianship I, Theory II with Musicianship II, etc. Therefore, generally, all music majorsenrolled in Theory I-IV should be enrolled in the corresponding musicianship course. Astudent may, however, take a theory course while being enrolled in the previousmusicianship course if at some point the student’s level of achievement in musicianshipfalls behind the level of achievement in theory. A student may not take a musicianshipcourse unless the corresponding theory course has been completed or is being takenconcurrently. In no event may a student have more than one semester “discrepancy” inenrollment between theory and musicianship courses. Students must earn a grade of Cor better in the following courses, MUS 1301, 1101, 1302, 1102, 2301, and 2101.Theory V is offered every fall and spring semester (and on occasion in the summer aswell). Because of the advanced material and discussion-based nature of the class, classsizes for Theory V are set lower than for Theory I-IV in order to facilitate studentlearning. Because of the number of other theory and musicianship courses we mustoffer and the availability of instructors and theory classrooms, it is not possible to offerenough sections of Theory V in the fall semester to enroll all students who took TheoryIV the previous spring. Each year some students must wait and take Theory V in thespring. Please allow for this possibility in your advance planning and have an alternate10
plan in case you must take Theory V in the spring of your junior year rather than in thefall. Because Theory V is a different type of course and not a direct continuation of thematerial in Theory IV, there is no significant pedagogical disadvantage to taking TheoryV in the spring or summer.Music History - The music history sequence in the core music courses required of allmusic majors consists of four courses: MUS 3324 (The History of Music Before 1600),MUS 3325 (The History of Music from 1600 to 1800), MUS 3326 (The History of Musicfrom 1800 to World War I), and MUS 3327 (The History of Music from World War I to thePresent). These courses are intended to be upper-level material; and they may be takenin any order, although more advanced theory studies are required for some than forothers.Music EducationMUS 1330, Introduction to Music Education, must be taken in the freshman orsophomore year and is a prerequisite to all upper-level music education courses. ForBME (choral) majors, MUS 3261 (Choral Conducting, Spring) is a prerequisite to MUS4337 (Choral Literature, Fall).Dropping a CourseStudents have the option to drop a class prior or during a semester. Students should review“Before You Drop a Course” under Academic Goals on the advising website atwww.baylor.edu/advising. Once the term has begun, students should follow these guidelines.If a student drops a class before the end of the twelfth class day of the fall or spring semester,the course will be removed from the student’s transcript. After the twelfth (and through the fiftieth) classday, a notation of W will appear with any dropped class on the student’s transcript.Failure of the student to drop a class officially will result in a grade of “F”. A class is notconsidered officially dropped until the student either drops the class through BearWeb or initiates thedrop by delivering the signed add/drop form to the Office of the Registrar. The student must attendclass regularly until that time. After the 12th class day, an advisor approval is necessary before astudent may drop a course.IncompletesA grade of “I” is given for any course in which the course work is not completed, or the finalexam is missed due to illness or other just cause. A student who is unable to take a jury or finalexamination must take the responsibility for scheduling a delayed examination at the earliest possibletime. The “I” grade must be removed by the end of the following semester (including summerterms) or it becomes an “F.” An “I” grade is not included in hours attempted or grade point averageuntil it expires or becomes a grade. A student may petition for an extension of time for the removal of11
an incomplete. A student must submit an “Extension of Time for Incomplete Grade” form to the Dean ofthe School of Music for approval. This form can be secured from the Undergraduate AcademicPrograms Manager office (RG 113). (A copy of this form is included in the appendix of this handbookand the School of Music website).Marching Band/LF CreditCredit in MUEN 1102, Marching Band, may be used to satisfy degree requirements in LifetimeFitness. However, Marching Band enrollment may not satisfy both Lifetime Fitness and Ensemblerequirements in the same semester. Any student enrolled in Marching Band for LF credit must also beconcurrently enrolled in a second ensemble.Instrumental and Vocal Ensembles are listed below:INSTRUMENTALEnsemblesBaylor SymphonyWind EnsembleSymphonic BandJazz EnsembleConcert BandMarching BandBU Campus OrchestraEarly Music EnsembleConductorMr. Stephen HeydeDr. Eric WilsonDr. Isaiah OdajimaMr. Alex ParkerMr. Steve DaileyOdajima/DaileyDr. Michael AlexanderDr. Jann CosartVOCALEnsemblesA Cappella ChoirChamber SingersConcert ChoirBU Men’s ChoirWomen's ChoirBaylor Bella VoceBaylor OperaVirtuOSOConductorDr. Brian SchmidtDr. Brian SchmidtDr. Stephen GusukumaDr. Randall BradleyMs. Amy AllibonDr. Lynne GackleMs. Susan LiDr. Stephen GusukumaMusic 4V80 - Independent StudiesMusic 4V80 is a course designed for independent research undertaken by the student under thesupervision of one faculty member and is limited to areas of study other than applied music. Thiscourse is further limited to superior students working in their major area. It cannot duplicatethe content of another course or substitute for degree requirements. Students wishing to registerfor MUS 4V80 must have approval of the Associate Dean before registering. Students should securea “Request for MUS 4V80” form prior to advisement/registration.
