You can get one course credit for the jazz band, concert band, string chamber orchestra, and concert choir for as many semesters as you desire (“Culture” portion of the Gen Ed requirements), or you can participate for no credit (free).
If you join without getting course credit for it, you can apply to use this co-curricular activity as a Structured Honors Experience, which gives you credit for three cultural events and 15 service hours in the Honors Program. The form and additional information on the Structured Honors Experience option are in the Honors Program 2022-23 Canvas shell. You’re always welcome to contact us at honors@ferris.edu for more information as well!
