 METHOD OF INSTRUCTION
 Applied Music is taught in the project method. Each student applying for lessons
is given a placement examination evaluating his native ability, knowledge of subject,
skill proficiency, and repertoire. When the student's accomplishment level or potential
has been gauged, he is assigned to a teacher for private or class instruction. Credits
earned are determined by examination at the end of each semester and are based upon
the student's native talent, technical advancement and repertoire. A minimum of 3
hours weekly practice is required in courses numbering under 100. A minimum of 6
hours weekly practice is required in courses numbering over 100. Students registering
in freshman, sophomore, junior and senior courses may earn 2 credit hours each
semester in any one branch of applied music. Students receiving failing grades for 2
consecutive semesters shall not be allowed to continue in Applied Music.
