The Music: Commercial Program has been designed to focus on
today's music in pop and jazz idioms. It is a first step toward
a professional career in commercial music, such as studio
engineer, band manager or performer. In addition to academic
music classes, the curriculum includes private training in an
instrument, performances with fine ensembles, and introduction
to computers and music. Emphasis is placed on integrating
skills acquisition with performance opportunities. Not all
courses in this program transfer to all colleges. Students
planning to transfer should see an academic advisor or counselor
before enrolling in any course. |

This is a selective admission program. In order to be
considered as a candidate for this program, students must meet
