The Music Therapy Equivalency Certificate

The music therapy post-baccalaureate certificate program is for students with a music degree from a National Association of Schools of Music accredited institution (or an equivalent institution outside of the United States) and an interest in specialized studies that will lead to meeting the eligibility requirements to take the certification examination in music therapy administered by the Certification Board for Music Therapists. Successful passing of this examination leads to the person being credentialed as a Music Therapist-Board Certified. The courses within this equivalency certificate program are approved by the American Music Therapy Association, and accredited by the National Association of Schools of Music.

Admission
Students must satisfy admission requirements of the University, the Department of Music and the Music Therapy Program. Please note that an audition is not required unless students want to take applied music lessons on their principal instrument while completing this certificate. Applied music may be required in secondary instruments to prepare the student to pass the EMU Music Therapy Competencies. Students must be admitted into the music therapy post-baccalaureate certificate program before enrolling in required course work. Requirements for admission into this certificate program include the following:

Submission of the completed application, non-refundable application fee and all official undergraduate and graduate transcripts to undergraduate admissions in the Office of Admissions.
The earned equivalent of a U.S. bachelor’s degree in music from an accredited college or university.
A personal interview with the coordinator of music therapy is required. This interview will explore the applicant’s (a) interest in and general knowledge of music therapy, (b) music skills, and (c) personal potential for being a successful music therapist.
Applicants whose native language is not English must demonstrate English language proficiency.

Certificate Requirements
The post-baccalaureate music therapy equivalency certificate program must consist of all music therapy courses required for the bachelor of music therapy degree. Courses in the sciences and in other areas to meet the American Music Therapy Association’s educational standards are required. Students must successfully demonstrate the EMU Music Therapy Competencies in guitar, piano and voice before being eligible to enter the required clinical training (internship). A specific program of study will be developed by the Coordinator of Music Therapy, in consultation with the student, once the student is admitted into the equivalency certificate program. Copies of the criteria for the competencies can be obtained from the Coordinator of Music Therapy.
