Overview

Music therapy is the clinical and evidence-based use of music interventions to accomplish individualized goals within a therapeutic relationship. Board-certified music therapists (MT-BCs) work in medical, psychiatric, and educational settings to help clients improve psychological and physiological functioning. The degree program at Nazareth University, approved by the American Music Therapy Association, offers several advantages, including the performance opportunities of other music majors: Students will take four years of hour-long lessons and give a senior recital in their primary performance area. Students can perform in honors recitals, compete in concerto and aria contests, and perform with multiple ensembles. Student clinical training — which begins with observations in their freshman year — will include a board-certified music therapist as a supervisor at every session throughout the program's four years. Students will get experience conducting sessions in community health care and education settings and in Nazareth's state-of-the-art Music Therapy Clinic, part of Nazareth's York Wellness and Rehabilitation Institute. The York Institute houses clinics in many therapeutic disciplines, which allows every student the chance to co-treat with students and supervisors from other professions. Very few programs in the country provide these expansive opportunities.

Optional Practical Training (OPT)

OPT and STEM OPT eligibility depend on maintaining F-1 status and on the program. A program counts as STEM only when its CIP code is on the official STEM list — not because its name sounds technical.
