Carnegie Mellon for voice?

<p>I am a junior in high school currently considering colleges and summer programs. For a while, I wanted to pursue musical theater, but discovered I can't dance and have a more operatic sound, and changed my focus to voice. I plan to be a voice major for the great vocal education, and hopefully do both opera and musical theater. I know that CMU has one of the best musical theater programs, but how is the voice program?
Also, would it be best to do the CMU voice summer program, to increase my chances of getting into the school, or should I apply to more prestigious programs such as Interlochen? </p>

<p>The originator of the thread in the last link has a son that was accepted there as a vp major and indicated CMU as his final choice for the academic year beginning '09. You may want to use CC’s private message feature and contact her directly.</p>
