Queen's University offers four undergraduate degrees with concentrations in music.
The School of Music admits students into a four-year program leading to the Bachelor of Music degree, as described on the B.Mus. page. Admission is based on an audition, and students must also meet the minimum academic requirements for admission to the University. Details on how to apply and the audition process are described on the Prospective Students page.
For those students whose goal to be a music educator has been chosen before they enter university, the B.Mus. degree can be combined with a Bachelor of Education. Admission to the five-year concurrent B.Mus./B.Ed. program is based on an audition, on a Personal Statement of Experience (evaluated by the Faculty of Education) and on meeting Queen's academic requirements. A student whose application to the B.Mus/B.Ed. program is unsuccessful will automatically be considered for the B.Mus. program.
The University also offers three Bachelor of Arts degree programs in Music for students who wish to integrate the study of music into a broad academic education in the humanities or sciences. These programs offer many of the music courses available within the B.Mus. program, including private instrumental or vocal instruction, but excluding musicianship courses and some applied study courses. Ensembles are open, upon audition, to non-B.Mus. students without credit. No audition is required for entry into these programs; admissions information is available on the University's Admissions website.
