Every student taking applied music lessons for credit must take a final performance
examination (jury) at the end of each semester. Students who present a faculty-screened
pre-recital audition the semester before a recital are exempt from the jury for that
semester and for the semester of the recital, unless the recital is sufficiently close
to the beginning of the semester so as to warrant a jury to examine new repertoire.
Teacher discretion applies.
Juries will be approximately 10 minutes in length.
Studios will provide written comments to students after the juries. Jury forms are
provided online.
Although juries influence a semester grade as much as one letter grade up or down,
grading policies are up to the individual studio teacher.
The location, date, and time of juries is up to the instructors within each performance
area.
