If I am granted Applied Music instruction from Ventura College, I agree to enroll in the required concurrent music courses as part of the Associate in Arts in Music Degree for Transfer as specified in the college catalog. I also agree to meet regularly with my Music Faculty Advisor and Counselor to successfully meet the degree requirements in a timely manner (two years).
