<p>Thanks, all! Please keep the input coming! I do have an order of preference in mind, but I don’t know if it will withstand the test of time or if my first choice will be switched once I have even more information. The current order of preference is as follows:</p>
<p>1st choice: NYU
2nd choice: tie between USC and Berklee
3rd choice: The New School
4th choice: UMiami
5th choice: VCU</p>
<p>The top 3 are very close appeal-wise, so it’s still a very tough decision. If it seems like I’m making the wrong choice, there’s a method to the madness, trust me. I’ll finish my pros and cons list soon and post it here when I’m done, but in the meantime, please keep sharing!</p>
