hi everyone, I wanted to ask those who are doing both the conservatory three-year degree and university how exactly the credit situation works. I know that you can do a maximum of 90 credits per year between the two and you can choose whether to do about 45/45 or 30/60. if someone did the two-year license in history and harmony under the old system, so that Harmony I and II and History I and II are validated, and let's say each was worth 6 credits, are these 24 total CFU counted among those of the first year and subtracted from those available (leaving either 21 or 6 remaining), or do they count separately?
also, is it possible to graduate before the prescribed part-time years (i.e., 4 or 6) if one manages to complete all exams because there are fewer credits at the university?
i hope I explained myself clearly, thanks to those who will answer
I wouldn't want to be wrong, but the credits are valid for the academic year for which they are intended. Practically speaking, if Jazz Harmony I is in the 1st year and Jazz Harmony II is in the 2nd, the credits will be 6 for the 1st and 6 for the 2nd.
Once you finish university, you will no longer have the part-time status, so you will return to full-time at the conservatory and take your exams whenever you want during the scheduled sessions ... once you have completed the mandatory attendance of the courses.
I don't think it is possible to earn more annual credits than those established by the institute (usually 60) and if, for example, after finishing your university degree you still had 61 credits at the conservatory ... you won't be able to graduate in 1 year.

... however, no one forbids attending the courses (even all of them) and taking the exams when the regulations provide for it

Dear Ettore, if you are copying from someone else's answer, at least cite the source. That, among other things, is a personal opinion, not the Bible.
Meanwhile, it is not true that you cannot earn more than 60 annual credits. The idea is that your complete study path should be consistent with the number of credits acquired, but if you follow three years of courses and take ALL the exams in the third year, you can.
In the other "source" it says that they count them separately: it is a choice made by your conservatory, because in many others (like mine, but not only) instead they "deduct" from the annual credits.
