Introduction
Designed as a Major Related Program (MRP) for transfer with junior standing for students who intend to major in music at a four-year college or university.
The Associate in Music Direct Transfer Agreement/Major Related Program (AM-DTA/MRP) is for students who intend to secure a bachelor's degree in Music from a four-year college or university. Students completing the Associate in Music DTA/MRP (who have also met any specific institutional GPA, performance, and audition requirements) will be regarded as having met the minimum preparation for consideration for admission to a baccalaureate Music program unless an exception is specifically noted in this agreement.
