Study Abroad Transfer Credit Policy

 The 音乐 Department at Colorado College offers block-length courses led by department faculty that travel abroad, including Asia, 澳大利亚, and Europe among others. 学生 who wish to immerse themselves in international study for a greater duration of time (a semester or a year) may apply certain music-related credits earned abroad to the music major or minor. To receive credit, students must submit a copy of the syllabus for the course(s) taken with their Course Approval Requests through Summit.

音乐 majors may apply up to three (3) courses and 音乐 minors may apply up to two (2) courses to their requirements, but no more than one (1) to each of the three core components (音乐 in Culture, 音乐才能, and 创造力). Additionally, students may apply one-quarter credit (.25) of formal private vocal or instrumental instruction if these lessons are officially taken through their host institution. One-quarter credit (.25) of ensemble participation from their abroad experience can also be applied as long as the student can provide the department with a copy of the 程序 from a culminating public performance of that ensemble.

– February 2022 (for additional information on transfer of credit, check with your 音乐 Department advisor)
