Program Guidance Element What You Need to Know
Considerations for Selecting Degree Being a music major is intense, but a very rewarding experience. We offer our ensembles, lessons, and most courses in-person. Here, you will be a part of small class sizes taught by professors with graduate degrees. We also offer the opportunity for you to travel on regional, national, and international tours. We have also had masterclasses with groups like Cantus, the Canadian Brass, etc. We have two choral groups, marching band, symphonic band, woodwind ensemble, brass ensemble, opera & musical theatre workshop, a community choir with whom we collaborate on Masterworks, and an in-house opera company doing fully staged productions yearly.
Considerations When Selecting Courses

Before junior year, it is best to have completed the Music Theory I & II sequence, along with the correlative Aural skills/Sight-singing musicianship skills courses (I & II) since you will need to take Theory III & IV (and Aural Skills III & IV) your junior year. It is also a good idea to have some class piano or piano lessons experience because there is a sequence requirement for that as well. Lastly, since lessons on area of choice are required each semester, as well as the correlative ensemble (i.e. choir and/or opera & musical theatre workshop if you are a vocalist or band/orchestra if you are an instrumentalist). Courses are offered in sequence and may not be offered every semester if they are in a rotation. As a music education major, it is important to have had completed the education department transfer requirements for junior year.

  • Create a schedule for all required courses, pay attention to prerequisites and when courses are offered, complete your first math and English courses in your first year
  • Connect with an advisor at your community college and Emory & Henry University within your first year via College Connect
Program Requirements Beyond Specific Courses Recital attendance at a given number of on-campus performances will be required each semester. If you are an education major, you may need transportation for off-campus observations. Additionally, you will need to complete an audition of at least two contrasting pieces for admittance into the program. Contact Admissions or the Department Chair to arrange either a video submission or an in-person audition.
Doing More With Your Degree With a music degree, you can perform, travel abroad, go onto graduate school in areas like performance, music education, private studio instruction, music therapy, composition, etc. We have numerous students who double major in various degrees like psychology, engineering, physics, business, etc. We also have students on the swim, tennis, and track teams. We are able to make all of these opportunities happen because we are a small, supportive institution.
Program Successes & Highlights Our music department is a family. You have professors who deeply care about your success and will ensure you receive extremely tailored instruction. We create a variety of performance opportunities for you as a student, as well as many performances for you to see. We professors are all active artists in our varying specialties.

What If I Have An Associate Degree Or Credit For Prior Learning?
Expand or Shrink Accordion
Transfer Guidance Element What You Need to Know
Associate Transfer Degree Completion Completion of the Uniform Certificate of General Studies or an AA/AS degree program will guarantee completion of the 'Think, Understand & Create' liberal arts core component of the E&H undergraduate curriculum but may not fulfill specific departmental requirements or prerequisites needed for the major. Other elements of the core curriculum may need to be met if not taken as part of the AA/AS degree. Students will be required to complete CORE 200 and CORE 300 at E&H. Students completing at least 56 credits following high school graduation but before transferring to E&H are exempt from CORE 100, CORE 103, and Emory Abroad/Global Citizenship.

Completion of Associate Degree Concurrent with High School Only students who have completed college credit elsewhere following high school graduation will be exempt from the Core Curriculum requirement. Completion of courses that satisfy elements of the Care & Cultural Competency and Think, Understand & Create elements of the curriculum will be awarded equivalent credit with an earned grade of C or better. Students completing the Uniform Certificate of General Studies or an AA/AS degree program concurrently with their high school diploma will not be exempt from CORE 100, CORE 103, or Emory Abroad/Global Citizenship.
Credit for Prior Learning Emory & Henry awards credit for AP, IB, and CLEP. Please see the credit equivalency charts to determine the needed scores for course credit. Currently, we do not award academic credit for industry or military training.
Did You Know That...
  • Completing your Associate transfer degree post-high school satisfies all lower division general education requirements and increases the chance of completing your bachelor's degree?
  • Exceeding 3 years or 90 credits at your community college means you may have exhausted your financial aid at that college and have limited your future financial aid at: Emory & Henry University
