The Music Department also offers private non-credit lessons for a fee in the above areas through its “Artist/Teacher Program.” Non-credit lessons are available with the same fee structure as credit lessons, but with- out the expectation that students will play in recitals or masterclasses. Individual instructors may invite non-credit students to perform on these occasions at their discretion. Note: Students with a financial aid package may request the Student Aid Office to take this fee into account in their aid award. 478
