Students certified to earn a bachelor's degree in the College of Arts and Sciences who have already completed 26 or more credit hours of college course work that count toward graduation may obtain the minors listed below from the Kelley School of Business by successfully completing the business course work given for each. Any course in which the student receives a grade below C- may not be used to fulfill a minor requirement. An overall grade point average of 2.0 is required to earn each minor. All 300-level courses must be taken on the IU Bloomington campus. The College of Arts and Sciences limits the number to 22 credit hours outside the College that will count toward a degree.

School of Music
Introduction
A limited number of courses in the theory and history of music given in the School of Music are accepted as College of Arts and Sciences credit toward degrees in the College of Arts and Sciences. The B.A. in music is designed for students who want a general knowledge of the history and theory of music; it is not a professional degree. Students working toward this degree are not eligible to take courses in music education such as methods, student teaching, etc., to fulfill certification requirements.
Major in MusicB.A. in the College of Arts and Sciences
Requirements
Students must complete the following (for course descriptions see the School of Music bulletin):
- 26 credit hours in music history, literature, and theory to include T151-T152 Literature and Structure I-II (3-3 cr.); T251-T252 Literature and Structure III-IV (3-3 cr.); T351 Literature and Structure V (3 cr.); and M401-M402 History of Music I-II (4-4 cr.). Additional credit hours may be elected from 300/400- or graduate-level courses in music theory, history, and composition.
- 4-16 credit hours in performance study (applied music). Students must meet the upper-division concentration level as determined by a regular music faculty upper-division hearing committee held at the end of each semester. Students must register for this hearing before midsemester in the music undergraduate office.
- Chamber music (1 cr.) for nonvoice students (F450 or other by consent of the director of music undergraduate studies).
- Students majoring in music for the B.A. degree must achieve a passing grade in major ensemble (X040 or X070) for each fall semester, spring semester, or second summer session in which they are enrolled on the Bloomington campus.
Credits earned in applied music and ensembles are considered outside the College of Arts and Sciences and therefore count toward the maximum of such credits applicable toward the B.A. For students in the B.A. music program, that maximum is 20 credit hours.
In addition to the basic university fees, students will pay an applied music fee for each applied music course taken.
Minor in Music in the College of Arts and Sciences
Requirements
At least 15 credit hours in music, including T151-T152 (3-3 cr.), T251-T252 (3-3 cr.), and one course from the following: T351, M401, M402, M410, T412, T416, T417, T418, or another "M" or "T" course at the 400 level, as approved by the director of undergraduate studies in music. Admission to the minor must be approved by the director of undergraduate studies in music.
Note: Any course in which the student receives a grade below C- may not be used to fulfill a minor requirement. The cumulative grade point average of all courses taken in fulfillment of minor requirements must be at least 2.0.
Minor in MusicMusic Studies in the School of Music

Courses may include elective performance study only at the 100 level (no more than 3 credit hours) and courses with a Z prefix (see list below). Other courses inside or outside of the School of Music may be used as electives if approved by both the Director of Music Undergraduate Studies and his/her counterpart in the student's home school (Academic Assistant Dean in the College of Arts and Sciences, for example). Music ensemble credits will not count toward the 12 credits of music electives. At least 6 of the 12 music elective credit hours must be nonperformance courses at the 300 level or higher.

Studying Abroad
The College of Arts and Sciences encourages students to take part in programs of overseas study sponsored by Indiana University (see the section "Overseas Study Programs" elsewhere in the 2000-2002 College of Arts and Sciences Bulletin). However, students may apply to programs administered by other institutions and organizations. Credits from non-Indiana University programs may be accepted as transfer credit, subject to the following conditions:
- Indiana University admissions policy limits the acceptance of transfer credit from study abroad to programs administered by a regionally accredited U.S. college or university, or by a foreign institution recognized by the ministry of education of the country as a university-level institution.
- Credit can only be awarded upon receipt of an official transcript, or equivalent document, listing specific courses taken and grades assigned. The amount of credit awarded by overseas study may not exceed the number of credit hours that can be earned at Indiana University in the same amount of time.
- The assignment of equivalent Indiana University course numbers or undistributed credit for course work transferred from non-Indiana University overseas study programs is subject to the approval of the appropriate academic departments and an Academic Assistant Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences.
- Course work not approved for transfer as credit in a particular academic department may be accepted, with the approval of the College of Arts and Sciences, as COAS foreign study credit. However, no more than 8 hours of such credit can be counted toward a degree in the College of Arts and Sciences.
- In cases where courses taken abroad fall into a set sequence of courses at Indiana University, the relevant academic departments may at their discretion require examinations before any transfer credit is awarded. Specific examples include courses in foreign languages, applied music, music theory, mathematics, and natural sciences.
- Overseas study programs vary greatly in quality. No transfer credit at all may be awarded for programs of uncertain quality, despite the issuance of a transcript.
- Students denied transfer credit for overseas study may seek credit by examination, as outlined elsewhere in this bulletin.
To assure that credits can be accepted from a particular overseas program, students are urged to submit credit transfer agreement forms to the Office of International Admissions prior to committing themselves to participating in the program. Forms may be obtained from the Office of Overseas Study.
Under certain circumstances students may be permitted to use Indiana University financial aid toward programs sponsored by organizations other than Indiana University. Information and application forms may be obtained from the Office of Overseas Study, Franklin Hall 303, (812) 855-9304. For such an application to be approved, the course work undertaken overseas must be integral to the student's major program at Indiana University, and the application must be approved by the student's academic department and the Office of Overseas Study.
