B291 mentions Magery typically requires extraordinary circumstances (like diviine revelation or ritual ordeal) to be acquired. Not sure if that applies to improving.
Horror Magic 9 has a spell called "Invest" which can give Magery 1 (with limitations) "for free" which I would gather means not needing to spend bonus CP per usual.
It mentions "The subject can buy Radically Unstable Magery down to ‑10% with earned points, but cannot remove the limitation completely."
Removing it completely comes on learning the spell later. "if they learn Invest, they can use points it earns them to eliminate the limitation."
Doesn't mention anything about buying extra levels, but I think the implication is there, because the spell has a prerequisite of Magery 6, so clearly it assumes you are able to buy up that Magery 1 up to Magery 6 using bonus CP.
Thaumatology pg 20 explores this under Maximum Magery and points to the possibility of making Unusual Background prereqs to high levels, like Banestorm does with "Archmage"
