You also may make a reservation in person Mon-Fri at CFAI between 1-5 p.m. in Jardine Hall Room 112 on the WSU campus.
Kodaly training can be taken as a non-credit option or for graduate credit. Non-credit registration is through the College of Fine Arts Institute. Credit registration is through the WSU graduate school.

Enrollment for Undergradaute or Graduate Credit: WSU online enrollment for credit tentatively starts April 15. Graduate credit for 2013 is obtained by enrolling in the appropriate sections (methodology and solfege) and paying the Kodaly fee plus 5 hours tuition at the workshop rate and the associated student fees. For 2013, those costs are handled through your WSU online enrollment and payment. Tuition and fees for the 5 credit hours will be $ 1,783.25 (inclusive-call 978-3389 to verify amount). Payment will be online after your enrollment is processed. There is a short-term loan option available through WSU. You may be eligible for financial aid if you are taking additional hours. An additional charge of $50.00 is required for admission to the graduate school or $35.00 for undergraduate admission. For details on WSU admission go directly to the Admissions Gateway link here. We look forward to working with you.

KODÁLY APPLICATIONS for Level Three Graduates
This new workshop/course will be offered again during summer 2013. The course is designed for students who have completed their Kodály certification. The course is set up to assist students in continual development of their individual musicianship, mentoring and research skills. Students can work individually or with the "applications group" to do folksong research, hone their musicianship (conducting/solfege) skills, and review methodology with levels instructors. Students will be encouraged to sing in the choir and may also participate as mentors to current students as a means of reviewing specific levels materials. Contact steve.oare@wichita.edu or elaine.bernstorf@wichita.edu for more information. Kodaly Applications: MUSE 767 (2 credits) Section CRN # 33540
