Music Placement Exams
Worship Leadership and Church Music students will take placement exams during orientation week prior to their first semester of classes. These exams help the Music and Worship department determine the areas of musical strengths and weaknesses of each student. Some students will be required to take one or more pregraduate level music courses as they work on their graduate degrees. Study guides for these placement exams are available in the Billy Graham School office (Cooke Hall, behind Alumni Chapel).
