Artist Diplomas conferred by American educational institutions are  not classified as academic degrees, lacking a standardized set of curricular and academic criteria; consequently, there is not a regulated series of class and academic requirements, and the degree is entirely focused on performance. Similar to other American music schools, the Greenwich Piano Institute does not mandate specific courses, GPAs, standardized test scores, or class rankings for admission into the Artist Diploma program. However, we will carefully evaluate your academic record and required essay to make sure you have the scholastic competence necessary to succeed in GPI American Artist Diploma (AD) Exam Certificate.
