You must have completed your BMus within two years of starting the BMus(Hons). If you did not, you must submit a portfolio applicable to the area of study being applied for.

You must have completed a Bachelor of Music (BMus) in the same major as you intend to undertake within the BMus(Hons) degree. You will require a GPA of 5.0 or higher in 60 points above stage II.

If you have less than 20 points remaining to complete your BMus, and have an average grade of B (or higher) in your final year of study, you are still eligible to apply for entry into the BMus(Hons).

You will need to complete your remaining BMus points before you are eligible to graduate with your BMus(Hons).
