MUP Term Report
All undergraduate and graduate students enrolled in private lessons (i.e. MUP courses) in the Department of Music are required to file an "MUP Term Report" each term of enrollment. This report provides both the student and the Department with a formal record of accomplishments during the semester. Completed MUP Term Report forms are due on the last Friday of each semester. Final grades will not be entered until MUP Term Report forms have been submitted.
