Information for Visiting International Students

Q - How do I apply for Music courses?

  1. You need first to contact UCC鈥檚 , which handles your application to UCC as a visiting student, your registration and other formal matters. Ask there about 鈥減re-registering鈥 for Music courses in advance.
  2. You may then liaise directly with the Department of Music concerning the Music courses you would like to take.
    • You must keep the International Education Office informed of your course-choices once they are definite choices.
  3. Near the beginning of each semester - when courses are about to start or have just started - visiting students who have been approved for study at UCC will find it convenient to use our online course database. Here you can browse information on the various courses open to visiting students, and also to define your own selection of courses.

 

Q -  Where do I find timetable details?

Information on class times and venues is given with course details.

 

Q - Am I guaranteed a place on courses for which I am applying?

Applications for most Music courses are at first approved on a provisional basis, pending your arrival in Cork and the beginning of those courses. Ultimately the Department鈥檚 acceptance of you for the courses you choose depends on whether you have the musical skills and experience to cope with those courses.

Please be aware that competition for places on our courses is intense, and that applications are sometimes refused. For instance: the class for a particular course may already be full and closed to further enrolment; you may have insufficient musical experience at university level to cope with the demands of the course; your GPA is not sufficiently high (our normal expectation is 3.0 or higher); you apply too late after the course has begun; etc.

 

Q - Do I need to understand and use music notation?

Not necessarily.

For many courses it is only to be expected, at university level, that you will need to be able to read scores fluently for study purposes and to read notation fluently when performing various types of music.

There are, however, various courses where use of music notation is not required. This may be, for example, where the musical tradition being studied is an oral one, or where Western music notation is simply not relevant (e.g., the music of Java). And we have certain performance options (for instance, in step dancing and set dancing) where students will not need to read notation.

If you are not sure whether your ability with notation is sufficient, the best thing to do is initially to go ahead and apply for the courses of your choice and then, after you arrive, consult the tutors for those courses. You will of course be able to withdraw from particular courses if it becomes apparent that you are struggling to meet the technical demands of their classes.
