The coursework includes theory, keyboarding, and ear training skills. This program prepares students for one of the many careers in music; broadens their general knowledge of music; and develops performance skills and the option to pursue an advanced degree in music. The Associate of Arts in Music for Transfer will prepare students for further studies toward a California State University (CSU) baccalaureate degree in Music. Students should consult with a counselor to determine whether this degree is the best option for their transfer goals. Other requirements include completion of 60 semester units or 90 quarter units of degree-applicable courses, minimum overall grade point average of 2.0, minimum grade of “C” (or “P”) for each course in the major, and completion of Cal-GETC (California General Education Transfer Curriculum).\n\n### Program Requirements"
