<p>Applying to Some Ivies (Harvard, Yale, Columbia) and UC's</p>

<p>In at columbia and all UCs, decent shot at H and Y.</p>

<p>In at Columbia and all UCs, In at Yale in musical performance, but not in Chem. Not in at Harvard in either major. (best guess).</p>

<p>(You have chances at all of these places, but I'm giving you my best estimate here).</p>

<p>Good luck.</p>

<p>thx </p>

<p>Any more??</p>

<p>Yeah, great shots everywhere. Good luck to you, man. Btw, how'd you get the gig at Carnegie?</p>

<p>EDIT: 100th post, yay</p>

<p>Anyone can get a gig at Carnegie if you rent the hall.</p>

<p>I was invited actually.</p>

<p>Yale has no music "performance" major. It's just a music (theory, history, composition) major. Although, there are countless performance opportunities.</p>
