<p>Hi, I'm graduating from a UC school (which doesn't have a good music program) and I'm thinking of doing 2nd bachelor's for either spring or winter admit in music education.</p>
<p>It seems that there are only a handful of schools that match my interest.</p>
<p>I was wondering if anyone knows schools other than some CSU's that match my interest, regardless of which state it is in.</p>
<p>Right now my top choice is CSU Northridge.</p>
<p>I play the violin so I'm hoping they have a good violin teacher, and of course good music education program.</p>
<p>I assume you're limiting your search within California? Here's a good place to start: <a href="http://www.stringsmagazine.com/search/msd/default.aspx%5B/url%5D">http://www.stringsmagazine.com/search/msd/default.aspx</a>. I'm more familiar with the east coast schools. </p>
<p>Your post didn't give much detail. If you want to expand and describe your parameters, it might be easier to offer specific options.</p>
<p>Hi, thank you. I didn't know of that website (although I subscribe to Strings magazine) so thank you for the info.</p>
<p>I want to apply to schools that offer 2nd bachelor's degree and spring/winter admit (which are not common). So that's how I thought CSU's are good. I'll look more into that website and do more research..</p>
<p>There is a possibility that you may have a problem with the spring or winter admit insofar as a number of the music ed courses might be semester sequenced. It may not be a problem depending on what your first undergrad degree is. If you already have a music related degree, you may have some music requirements waived; if you have a liberal arts backgound, you may have some of the initial psychology requirements done. </p>
<p>The real issue is in the age-based teaching methodology courses. These may only be offered one semester per year, in sequence. One is often a prereq for the second, or next level. </p>
<p>You may end up using your first semester as a filler semester getting as many non sequential coursework or electives out of the way so you can be in sync with the program.</p>
<p>Course offering sequence is definately school specific, bu it's a question you'll have to address with an off semester admission.</p>
