College Credit

College Credit for Marrowstone Music Festival Students

Students participating in Marrowstone, regardless of their age, are eligible to receive up to 4 elective college credits for their participation. These elective credits are earned by playing in an orchestra or in a chamber music group, with a maximum of 1 credit per week for each ensemble.  The cost is $50/credit plus $1 per quarter Legislative Action Fee.

This is a two step process, and the first step should be completed before arrival.
Step 1. Complete the one page Summer Session Application for a WWU ID number.
Step 2. Once you have a WWU ID number you can submit the Marrowstone Music Festival registration form and payment. (This step can be completed during the festival.)

  1. To apply for a WWU ID, go to WWU’s Summer Sessions registration website. Then click on Cost & Registration followed by Community members/Visiting and non-matriculated students. The Summer Registration Application is a PDF that will need to be filled out and scanned/emailed to Office@wwu.edu. You can submit the registration application at any time prior to coming to Marrowstone. Western will reply with instructions for securing your WWU ID on their website. NOTE: Disregard any deadlines on the website. Disregard any mention of registering for classes using Web4U. That information is for WWU students.
  2. Once you have a WWU ID, print and complete the Marrowstone Registration Form and choose the courses you wish to receive credit for.  Submit your completed registration form and payment to the Extended Education office in College Hall 133 (right across the street from the Performing Arts Center) or fax registrations with credit card payments to the secure fax 360-788-0854.  Upon verification of attendance at the Marrowstone Music Festival registration will be completed and a registration confirmation and receipt will be emailed.

If you have any questions about summer WWU registration or the credits received through Marrowstone participation, please contact Extended Education at ExtendedEducation@wwu.edu or 360-650-3308.
