Suggestions of Colleges with Music Majors

<p>Susantm- New England Conservatory is really different than the other schools you mentioned. My D auditioned at NEC two years ago. We visited with her prior to the audition and my H and I did not like it at all. It seemed run-down and depressing. It offers very little in the way of strong academics to complement the music. It is also very expensive with not much merit money. D does not think very highly of it after hearing from kids who did go there. Of course, there is some excellent music faculty.
Your son sounds like a strong student. Did you consider Rice at all? The Shepherd School of Music is fantastic.</p>
