Music Student Handbook

Juries

An Advancement Jury is held at the end of the second semester of study at the 22xx and 33xx Levels. The student will need to perform repertoire appropriate for advancement as indicated on their applied instructor’s repertoire list. The Advancement Jury will consist of a panel of at least 3 full time faculty members. If the jury is passed, the student will be cleared for study at the next level; If one of the panel members deems that the student is not ready, they will not pass the Advancement Jury.  If the student does not pass the Advancement Jury, the applied instructor has two options: 1.) To set up a “special” jury for the student, or 2.) to recommend additional study at the current level.  The student will remain at their current level of study until the Advancement Jury for that Level is passed.
