This academic map is designed to meet the needs of students who seek an Associate of Arts with a Field of Study (FOS) in Music and transfer to a four-year institution. This curriculum applies to the Bachelor of Music degree, but also may be applied to the Bachelor of Arts or other baccalaureate level music degree as deemed appropriate by the awarding institution. The field of study in music included in this concentration is approved by the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board. This academic map will constitute a 60 semester credit hour transfer block to any public Texas four-year college or university.

By completing the Music FOS and the recommended portion of the core curriculum for a total of 60 semester credit hours, students will qualify for the specialized Music Associate of Arts degree. Also, it is recommended that students complete the entire 42 semester credit hour core curriculum prior to transfer to another Texas public institution of higher education since that block of courses must be submitted for the receiving institution’s core curriculum.

Student should seek advisement from the Music Faculty each semester.
