Double Degree Program
The Peabody Conservatory and the Homewood schools of The Johns Hopkins University offer the opportunity for a limited number of students to pursue simultaneously a Bachelor of Music degree and either a Bachelor of Arts degree from the School of Arts and Sciences or a Bachelor of Science degree from the Whiting School of Engineering.
Students must be admitted independently to Peabody and one of the Homewood schools and be invited to participate in the Double Degree Program. Students who have begun their junior year of study are not eligible to enter the Double Degree Program nor may students transfer into the program midyear. Typically, the Double Degree Program takes a minimum of five years to complete.
Administrative services such as registration, financial aid, and health care are provided to Double Degree students by the Homewood schools. Consequently, students in the Double Degree Program do not receive Peabody merit scholarships or any other form of financial aid from Peabody. Double Degree students must enroll at a minimum in private lessons and, for instrumental majors, large ensembles to maintain their status as Peabody degree candidates in the Double Degree Program. Additional information regarding the Double Degree Program is available from the Office of Admissions and in the Office of Academic Affairs.
