Once approval to schedule a recital has been given, the student should obtain an information packet, Recital Guidelines, from the Music Office. This packet details the steps to take in scheduling and presenting a recital. Briefly, this process includes procuring a performance date and submitting information regarding personnel and programming to the School secretary responsible for program printing. There are specific deadlines for each step, so the student must follow carefully the schedule outlines in the information packet.
NOTE: Cancellation of a recital is permitted ONLY for extremely urgent reasons and ONLY with the approval of the major professor. A cancelled recital MAY NOT be rescheduled for the same semester during which it was cancelled.
