*All students must take a Theory Evaluation Test before enrolling in these courses; this test determines whether a student needs to take MUS 101 Fundamentals of Theory prior to taking Harmony I/Ear-Training I. Students who have taken AP Music Theory do not need to take this test: they are placed into Harmony I/Ear Training I, and, depending on their score, may place higher. Please contact the chair of the department of Music Theory, History, and Composition if you have taken AP Theory.
**May be replaced with two semesters of applied instruction (MUPI) at one credit each on any instrument. A jury examination is required for each semester of MUPI.
