Music Theory Placement Exam

It is possible for students to test into Music I (Music 209) and Music Theory II (Music 260) by taking a placement exam rather than taking Theory I (Music 160). The placement exam is available at the following times:

Incoming students: Take the placement exam during the scheduled time before classes begin. No other time is available for placement exams for new students.

Current students: November 1, April 1 deadline for requesting placement exam for the next semester classes. Send an e-mail indicating your interest in taking the placement exam to Music Department Chair Jeffrey Buettner, buettner@middlebury.edu. A time will then be arranged to administer the placement exam, before registration if possible.
