(*)NOTES / Music Theory -
(1)- For the Music Theory tests taken during the pandemic period when only composite scores were given, the composite scores will be used in lieu of subscores.
(2)- A total of 11 credits is possible. For example, if the students have a composite score of 4 or better and both subscores are 4 or better, they would receive the 3 credits exempting them from MUS 103, PLUS the 6 credits for the non-aural subscore, AND the 2 credits from the aural subscore.
