In order to apply to the B.A./M.M. program as a high school senior, a student must submit separate applications to Yale College and the Yale School of Music. These application processes are completely independent of each other. Therefore, students should feel free to apply to Yale College either Regular Decision or Single Choice Early Action. There is only one School of Music application deadline (December 1). Note that School of Music decisions for B.A./M.M. program applicants will not be released until early April.</span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></p> <p><strong><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span>Can I apply to more than one degree at the School of Music?</span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></strong><br /> <span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span>Yes, applicants can apply for up to two degree programs for the same instrument or area.
