Department of Music Summer Studies

During Summer Quarter, Stanford students may only enroll in zero-unit courses if they have enrolled in another unit- and credit-bearing course. Students are responsible for any tuition and fees associated with an ensemble or applied music lesson for both unit-bearing and zero-unit versions of a course. Zero-unit courses (MUSIC courses with a 'Z' in the catalog number) are not available to Summer Visitors.

We regret that Summer Quarter Music performance courses are not available for zero-unit enrollment.
