<p>I was wondering what degrees you need to have completed to be selected for acceptance into a program for Ph.D in music education. I’m on track for receiving my B.M.E (music education) but was wondering what my options are for a master’s degree.</p>

<p>Do I have to get a MM? Or can it be an MA or MFA?</p>

<p>If it must be an MM, must it be an MM in music education, or can it be performance, since I am going to get an undergrad music ed degree?</p>

<p>Do the prerequisites typically vary with school? </p>

<p>Thanks in advance!</p>

<p>pick out 6-10 schools that might appeal to you for a Ph.D, and see what their requirements are</p>

<p>go to your school office, ask them your questions, and find out who can advise you</p>
