Individual Instruction Program

At the beginning of the school year in September and at the beginning of each term, auditions are held for the selection of students interested in individual instruction. Should more students audition for a given course than the instructor is scheduled to teach, preference will be given to music majors, modified majors, and minors, and to members of performing organizations of Dartmouth College.

One course credit is offered for the combined three terms of instruction and will be granted only after successful completion of all three terms of study. The course is included as part of a student’s official course load only in the first term; a grade is given upon completion of the final term. A student who does not complete the course will receive a non- credit grade. All courses in this sequence (Music 11-16) are offered only on a graded basis; under College regulations the policy must be announced prior to each initial term. A student may repeat the course, if satisfactory progress has been made, within the conditions stated following this description. Dist: ART.

Students not accepted into a course in instrumental or vocal instruction may make private arrangements for study with teachers on the staff of Dartmouth College, at the discretion of the instructor, or they may study off-campus with teachers in the area. No academic credit will be given for off-campus study and the fee is the responsibility of the student.
