We offer award-winning
online courses
multi-course certificate programs
, a
Bachelor of Arts degree, a Master of Music degree, and a Master of Arts degree
Who is Berklee Online designed for?
Our programs provide lifelong learning opportunities to people interested in music and working in the music industry. The courses range from beginner to advanced graduate level.
What kind of subjects are taught?
Berklee Online offers more than 200 courses in every musical interest area: Everything from instruction on specific instruments (guitar, piano, bass, drums, voice) to music production software (Ableton, Pro Tools, Logic, and more) to larger concepts in music business, songwriting, theory, and composing for film, TV, and games
Do online students receive the benefits of an on-campus Berklee education?
Absolutely! Just like the students studying on Berklee’s Boston campus, Berklee Online students receive instruction from the same world-renowned faculty, with the added benefit of having music industry professionals from around the world teaching as well. You’ll also receive guidance from Berklee-trained Academic Advisors, and have the opportunity to walk at the Commencement ceremony in Boston with your cohort of graduates who studied online and in-person.
Admissions
What is the process to apply for/enroll in a Berklee Online program or course?
Certificate programs and online courses are offered on an open enrollment basis. Simply complete the online enrollment form and provide payment prior to the course start date and you’re ready to go! Degree programs require an application and supporting documentation. See the
Admission Requirements
for more details.
Will I receive a Berklee ID and/or email address?
Berklee Online degree students are eligible to request a Berklee ID. Upon acceptance into the program, degree students are also given a berklee.edu email address.
Courses
Can I take non-credit courses in a certificate?
All courses in a certificate program must be taken for credit.
Can I waive some for-credit courses into a certificate?
Students must enroll in a certificate by paying the $175 certificate registration fee prior to completing the final course in the program. All for-credit courses that have been awarded a passing grade and that align with a certificate program may transfer into that program.
Can I upgrade from a lower-level certificate to a higher-level certificate?
Yes! Berklee Online offers two certificate options:
CHANGE CERTIFICATE: When a student wants to change their lower-level certificate to a higher-level certificate (or vice versa) prior to the completion of the program. There are no additional fees for this option other than the cost of additional courses, and you will only earn one certificate upon completion.
STARTING A NEW CERTIFICATE: When a student wants to earn more than one certificate by having the courses from their lower-level certificate waived into a higher-level certificate. In this case, an additional $175 registration fee is required.
Instructors
Who teaches Berklee Online courses?
Berklee faculty and seasoned professionals teach our courses. Our instructors are recognized experts in their respective fields—they’ve produced and engineered hundreds of artists and numerous award-winning projects, and several of their students have gone on to earn GRAMMY Award nominations.
Financial Aid
Am I eligible for financial aid?
Financial assistance is available for Berklee Online degree programs. This assistance may come from a variety of sources including federal awards, outside scholarships, and private loans.
Federal financial aid is not available for non-degree programs. Non-degree students typically finance their costs out-of-pocket or with a private loan. Review our payment options.
Graduation
What happens if I turn in my graduation application late? Do I still need to apply by December 1 even if I don’t want to walk in the Commencement ceremony?
Because we must coordinate with the Boston campus for Commencement, it is essential that students planning to walk in the ceremony submit their graduation application by 12:00 midnight ET on December 1. If you submit your application late, you will need to wait until the following year to walk.
We ask all students planning to graduate within the current academic year to apply for graduation by December 1, regardless of their plans to participate in Commencement. Late application for students who do not wish to walk will result in processing delays for your academic record and diploma, and your name may not be listed in the ceremony program.
What’s the difference between graduating and walking in Commencement?
Great question! Walking in Commencement and graduating are two separate things.
You can walk in Commencement when you are nine (9) credits or less away from completing your degree requirements by the end of the spring term. Please note: Berklee Online degree students are not required to walk in Commencement in Boston.
You graduate when you have met all of the following criteria:
Attained at least a 2.70 cumulative GPA in concentrate courses
Have a minimum cumulative GPA of 2.00
Fulfilled all program requirements AND completed a minimum of 120 credits for a single major or 165 for a dual major
Completed a minimum of 60 institutional credits for a single major or 105 institutional credits for a dual major
Fulfilled all financial obligations to the college
Note
Walking across the stage in Commencement
does not
mean that you have graduated. You will not officially graduate and receive your diploma until you meet all of the eligibility requirements.
I just finished my last term at Berklee Online! What happens next? Is there anything I need to do?
Congratulations on finishing! If you have already filled out a graduation application, you will want to double-check the "
Graduation Checklist
" to ensure you have taken care of all of the various items associated with graduating. If you have not filled out a graduation application, you will need to do that as soon as possible. You will not be able to graduate until we have received and processed your graduation application.
When will I get my diploma?
You will receive your diploma within 6-8 weeks of completing your degree requirements. Please keep in mind that instructors have up to two (2) weeks to submit final grades after the term concludes.
Diplomas are mailed to the address you include on your graduation application. If your mailing address changes after you have submitted your graduation application, be sure to update us at
graduation@online.berklee.edu
Keep in mind that if you are walking in Commencement, you will not receive your official diploma at the ceremony.
Transfer Credits
Can I find out how many transfer credits I am eligible for before I apply to the degree program?
If you are interested in applying to the Bachelor of Arts degree program and would like an estimate of the amount of transfer credit you would receive, you can request an unofficial transfer evaluation by emailing a copy of your transcript(s) to the Berklee Online Transfer Team at
transfer@online.berklee.edu
. Be sure to include your name, major of interest, and any additional questions you may have. You can expect to receive your assessment within 7-10 business days.
I didn’t receive credit on my Official Evaluation for all of the courses that I thought I would. What should I do?
The earlier you contact us with questions or concerns regarding your evaluation, the easier it will be for us to address any issues. Therefore, it is very important when you first receive your official transfer evaluation that you review the information carefully.
If you notice a remaining requirement that you believe you’ve already fulfilled, first consult our document on Common Reasons Credit Does Not Transfer. It’s possible that the course you are thinking of didn’t meet our eligibility requirements.
If none of those exclusions apply, please fill out a Transfer Credit Equivalency Re-evaluation form for the courses you wish to have reconsidered.
Sometimes, we are not able to locate specific information for a course online and we are not able to determine an equivalency, but we are always happy to review additional material which will help us make that determination.
Do my Berklee Online, Berklee campus, or Prior Learning Credit coursework count towards the 60 transfer credit limit?
No, credits completed at Berklee or through the prior learning process do not count towards the 60 transfer credit limit. This maximum is for credit-bearing exams and undergraduate-level coursework completed externally.
What is a credit deficiency and why do I need to make up credit?
Credit deficiencies are caused by transferring a course that is less than three (3) credits to fulfill a three (3) credit Berklee Online requirement. Students with a credit deficiency will be short of the minimum number of credits required to graduate once they have completed their program requirements. In order to be eligible to graduate, you will need to make up the credits you are deficient in.
While the Transfer Team does their best to avoid giving students credit deficiencies, it is not always possible. You can make up the credits you are deficient in by completing additional Berklee Online coursework, by applying for prior learning credit, or by completing additional external coursework in the area in which you are deficient.
Note
all external courses will first need to be approved by the Transfer Team.
Can transfer credit fulfill prerequisites?
It depends. Generally, transfer credit cannot be used to fulfill prerequisites unless we determine that the course you completed is a direct equivalent to one of the courses we offer at Berklee Online. Keep in mind that there are some courses which require you to pass a placement exam. For these you will need to achieve a passing grade on the test to fulfill the prerequisite, otherwise you will need to complete the appropriate Berklee Online course.
Can I transfer credits to Berklee Online after I have started the degree program?
Yes, you can. To determine if the coursework you already completed or are considering taking is eligible to fulfill your remaining degree requirements, contact the Transfer Team at
transfer@online.berklee.edu
I am a Berklee campus student. Can I transfer courses from Berklee Online to my campus-based program?
View a
list of transferable courses
to Berklee’s campus programs.
For additional questions about transferring courses from Berklee Online to Berklee's campus programs please contact the campus transcript evaluator at
transfercredits@berklee.edu
Are Berklee Online courses transferable to other institutions?
Berklee Online is regionally accredited by the New England Commission of Higher Education (NECHE), the same association that accredits our main campus and other leading academic institutions such as Harvard University and MIT. Our courses are transferable to other institutions, but it's up to the receiving institution to decide the number and types of courses that may transfer. We recommend getting a course pre-approved by an institution before enrolling.
Tuition
How do Berklee Online’s costs compare to other education options?
Berklee Online’s programs have a tuition cost that is approximately 64 percent less than on-campus tuition at Berklee’s Boston campus. Moreover, a recent study revealed that the average annual tuition at for-profit colleges is more than twice as expensive as Berklee Online. Even average annual tuition at other accredited non-profit online universities is roughly $11,000 more expensive than tuition for a year with Berklee Online!
How much does a
certificate program
cost?
There is a one time $175 registration fee per certificate program. Students may either pay per course term (at the $1,575.00 per credit course cost) or pay in full to receive a 10 percent discount. The registration fee and all courses for the term you wish to begin in must be paid in full in order to begin.

Bachelor’s degree

Course Description
As a composer or musician in the film and television industries, it's essential to be able to communicate effectively with directors, producers, and others involved in the production of these media. The Language of Film and TV course is designed to give you a thorough understanding of film and television and, specifically, how they make meaning beyond their stories and characters.
The course guides you through the history of film and television and the crucial concepts about the language they use to reach their audiences - a language that includes camera, frame composition, lighting, production design, acting-styles, editing, dialogue, plot, genre, themes, sound, and point of view. You'll learn about mise-en-scène, cinematography, and editing, so that you are well versed in the design and visual elements of film and television.
The course begins with an overview of the origins of cinema, exploring the contributions of Edison, the Lumière brothers, and Méliès, and then moves through the silent era into sound and the studio system, examining the role of narrative, acting, and sound and how they evolved. It then explores the emergence of television and how it became a part of everyday life.
You'll also learn about documentary, experimental, and animated film, and examine how digital technology is changing film, television, and media today. Throughout the course, you will screen and analyze such films as
The Great Train Robbery
It
The Crowd
Bringing Up Baby
Double Indemnity
North by Northwest
Citizen Kane
Singin' in the Rain
Apocalypse Now
Raging Bull
Goodfellas
, and others. You will also choose films from the American Film Institute's
100 Years 100 Movies
list and other sources for analysis. Television series include
I Love Lucy
and currently airing series.
The goal of the course is to provide you with the skills to interpret and analyze film and television, including their historical, stylistic, and narrative contexts, in order to better prepare you for working in these industries.
By the end of this course, you will be able to:
Identify and define terms associated with the film and television industry
Understand the historical development of film and television and the cultural contexts in which they evolved
Explain how film and television make visual and narrative meaning through a language that includes camera, frame composition, lighting, production design, acting-styles, editing, dialogue, plot, genre, themes, sound, and point of view

Joey Newman
Instructor
Joey Newman is an Emmy®-nominated composer whose work has shaped both television and film landscapes with its emotional depth and creative style. With a career spanning over two decades, Newman has brought his distinctive musical voice to a variety of media, including critically acclaimed television series, award-winning feature films, and groundbreaking video games.
A graduate of the Berklee College of Music, Newman’s early career began as co-composer on Ed Zwick and Marshall Herskovitz’s ABC drama Once and Again with W.G. Snuffy Walden, quickly establishing him as a rising talent in television scoring. Going solo, Newman forged enduring relationships with studios like Warner Bros. TV, CBS TV Studios and Discovery. His ability to pull from his band experience and orchestral training led him to composing the scores to long-running TV series such as ABC’s The Middle TLC’s Little People, Big World; diverse “dramedies” such as CBS’ All Rise and one of Disney+’s early series Diary of a Future President; award-winning independent films such as Two Eyes and Any Day Now; and Lineage, one of the biggest online role-playing games in history.
Whether it’s his ability to capture an emotional melody on piano or an evocative atmosphere among ambient electronics, Newman’s music offers a unique voice, brought to life through an innovative use of instrumentation and an openly creative dialogue with filmmakers and showrunners. Among his many collaborators, Newman has had the good fortune of working with major talents like Greg Berlanti, Eileen Heisler & DeAnn Heline, Gail Berman, Gina Rodriguez, Ty Burrell, McG, Diablo Cody, Janet Yang, Jerry Bruckheimer, Travis Fine, Brian Henson, Jeff Rake, Rina Mimoun, Ilana Peña, and Robin Shorr. He approaches every project with a commitment to storytelling, believing that music is a vital part of shaping the emotional experience of film and television. “Writing music to picture is all about understanding each project’s cinematic language and how best I can support it,” he says. “It’s a shared process, and I’m always striving to be a creative partner in telling the story.”
From the scoring stage and recording studio to “live-to-picture” performances, Newman has brought his expertise to productions outside of his own. Whether collaborating as an orchestrator for a composer’s project such as on Universal’s Seabiscuit or Pixar’s Cars; conducting an orchestra live for Pixar In Concert! or the launch event for Activision’s video game Call of Duty: Vanguard; or producing/arranging an indie artist’s album, Newman excels at finding distinctive, personalized approaches to elevate the music and performance. Newman’s rich musical heritage includes his father, Joe Frank Carollo, who played bass and sang in the iconic 1970s rock group Hamilton, Joe Frank & Reynolds. He is also part of the renowned Newman family of Hollywood composers, with his grandfather Lionel, great uncle Alfred, and cousins Randy, Thomas, and David all leaving an indelible mark on film music.
