Sample schedule

This is a model four-year degree plan.

This sample schedule serves as a guide and should not replace regular meetings with your advisor.

All music and theatre courses should be taken in the sequence suggested. Students may wish to rearrange the general education classes but are cautioned to check for prerequisites that can affect graduation planning.
