BA/BS in Music

The Music BA with a liberal arts emphasis offers flexible requirements with room for emphases like jazz, sacred or commercial music. Graduates earn the Bachelor of Arts. All undergraduates take placement auditions before registration, and juries conclude each series of applied study. Students complete theory, ear training and applied study before moving into upper-division status. Admission is specialized, and teaching is in person on the Tallahassee campus only. Prospective students can use the university's academic program guide to review prerequisite coursework, major requirements and advising contacts for this degree. Applicants should confirm current admission steps and timelines with the department before applying. Meeting an advisor early helps students plan courses that satisfy both general education and major expectations. Audition dates are posted by the college each year.
