• 公开独奏演奏会 (详情见下文)

MPA拥有先进的音乐素养, as identified through an audition/interview with Concordia faculty, 并由音乐学院决定是否录取. 标准包括音乐水平, availability to serve a needed role in a university ensemble or accompaniment/service playing, and willingness to be a healthy participant in Concordia’s culture.

• On-campus housing is primarily for full-time students; however, 在某些情况下, housing may be made available to students with part-time status. 作为兼职学生, MPA’s under the age of 25 who are interested in on-campus housing may petition the Associate Dean for Residential Education and Housing 服务.

MPA的学生必须承诺参加一整个学期的课程. Missed rehearsals/performances create a liability for ensembles, so MPA's are expected to have the same commitment level as undergraduate students. Please do not apply for the program if you are not sure about your ability to commit to rehearsal and performance schedules, 哪些是在每学期开始时完成的. 未达到出勤要求的学生, 如合奏课和私课教学大纲所示, 会被开除并且不退款吗. 系综 directors reserve the right to dismiss students if they do not maintain good standing in the ensemble.
