In addition to Music Major degrees, TCU offers a robust Music Minor degree and Harp Minors are welcome! The TCU harp studio welcomes students who want to make music their career, as well as students who want to pursue career options in TCUs other outstanding schools and colleges while continuing their harp studies. Harp Majors and Minors may perform in the TCU Harp Ensemble, TCU Symphony Orchestra, TCU Wind Symphony, TCU Symphonic Band, TCU Concert Band, and TCU Opera productions. Chamber music collaborations, solo recitals, studio recitals, as well as on campus, intercollegiate, and community performance opportunities are also available. The TCU Harp Ensemble regularly performs for campus and community events as well as other paying performance opportunities.
Three out of four students at TCU receive tuition assistance and scholarships, which means the majority of students are not paying the full price for tuition. At TCU students are able to combine merit based academic scholarships with need based assistance, and we are often able to grant additional performance based music scholarships to harp majors and to harp minors.
More than 60 religious traditions are represented on campus, and TCU supports the spiritual and ethical life of each member of the TCU community. Undergraduate students are required to take one class in a religious tradition as part of the core curriculum. The specific course and religious tradition from around the globe is entirely up to the student. All courses are taught from an academic perspective and not a didactic perspective.
