Music Transfer Guide for Students Pursuing an Associate of Arts Oregon Transfer Degree

The Associate of Arts (Oregon Transfer) degree is designed to allow you to complete the first two years of your studies at LBCC and transfer to a four-year college as a junior. Many courses meet the requirements of this degree, but some choices are better for music students than others. Select your electives carefully with your advisor to ensure that you take the prerequisites to upper-division courses. A sample AAOT two-year plan of study is outlined below. Check with your advisor each term to be sure you are on track for the degree, and to transfer seamlessly to the school of your choice.

Student Learning Outcomes

Students who successfully complete the AAOT degree with an emphasis in Music will be able to:

  • Perform alone or with others, either vocally or instrumentally, a varied repertoire of music;

  • Read, notate, analyze and describe music;

  • Understand music in relationship to history, culture and the other arts.
