| Exam Track Program - A popular hybrid plan between the Artist Training program and General Program, students of this option gain many valuable benefits of the Artist Training Program without all the time commitments. Students (with a minimum of a 45-minute lesson) still prepare for the semi-annual exams in January and May and have a customized curriculum designed by his or her teacher (as in #5 above). Students will be evaluated frequently by his or her teacher, and will still be eligible to perform at a higher-level venue along with faculty (see #9 above). There is no certificate for this program and no required group activities, although students may still opt for these as desired. |
