<p>I was just curious if anyone was applying to a conservatory as well as "normal" colleges. Me, I'm applying to a conservatory (Peabody) and an engineering school (among others).</p>
<p>I gave serious consideration to five year programs (where I could earn a BM and a BA), but I ultimately decided not to. I regret the decision, at times.</p>
<p>Northwestern has a cool dual program of Engineering and Music. I might look into that.</p>
