Grading and Final Marks

The official grade in each course is the letter grade. Where appropriate, a class average appears on transcripts expressed as the letter grade most representative of the class performance.

Grades A through C represent satisfactory passes, D and E the minimum requirements to pass the course, and F a failure.

Pass

The candidate can express themselves artistically, show satisfactory understanding of style and form. The candidate displays good communication skills and sufficient musical- and instrumental skills. A "pass" constitues a complete concert experience where all assessment criteria are fulfilled and where learning objectives can be regarded as attained.

Fail

The candidate's ability for artistic expression appears limited. The concert experience as a whole, conveyance, musical-and instrumental skills are not at an adequate level. An achievement at such a low level that one cannot consider the assessment critera and/or learning objectives to have been attained.
