Academic Advisement
All Music Majors are required to meet with the designated faculty in each Option each semester for mandatory academic advisement. Students who fail to meet with their advisor will not be allowed to enroll through System Registration, which could result in missing their Priority Registration time.
Undergraduate Music Advisor Lea Antone is available to assist students with general music advisement. Questions regarding academic status, selecting a major, changing a major, Degree Progress Reports (DPR), unofficial transcripts, graduation and transfer evaluation should be directed to her attention.
Questions regarding graduate studies should be directed to the Graduate Advisor at (818) 677-3181.
