Applicants require an Alberta Education High School Diploma and the following:
*A performance audition is required before applicants are offered admission. Contact the Fine Arts Department to schedule an audition.
Mature Student Admission
Students who have been out of school for one full year may also be admitted. Applicants must have English 30-1 or be admissible to EN0130 as determined by Northwestern Polytechnic placement assessments. If EN0130 must be taken in order to fulfill the English requirement, it must be taken in the first semester which means that first year requirements may not be completed within a year. In addition to the English requirement, applicants must have the equivalent of Royal Conservatory Level 8 Theory (previously Advanced Theory [2009]), Conservatory Canada Grade 4, or MU1000*.
*Applicants who do not present successful completion of MU1000 or equivalent will be required to write a Music Theory Placement examination before registering in this program. Students who do not demonstrate the equivalent of Royal Conservatory Level 8 Theory skills will take longer to complete this program of study.
Advanced Standing
Advanced standing for selected courses may be given at the discretion of the Fine Arts Department in accordance with Northwestern Polytechnic policy.
