<p>yeah ive already gotten into a few other schools. just figured these were the 2 reach-iest of the ones i applied to</p>

<p>bump! i’ll chance back!</p>

<p>I’d say both schools are low reaches for you, so a lot will depend on the rest of your app. Good luck and please chance back! <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1440723-chance-russian-student-columbia-brown-princeton-yale.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1440723-chance-russian-student-columbia-brown-princeton-yale.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>thanks, bump?</p>

<p>Have you looked in Berklee College of Music ? It’s campus is same neighborhood as Northeastern</p>

<p>I thought Berklee was, along with Juilliard, a few of the “reach-for-anyone” schools of the musical world…</p>

<p>with berklee, i’m pretty sure they could care less about gpa and test scores, all they really care about is musical ability. i think their avg gpa is a 2.9 or something</p>

<p>Agreed; Berklee and Juilliard are not your ordinary “reach-for-anyone” schools. What makes these two schools “reaches-for-anyone” is the musical ability of the applicants, I mean, these two schools attract the best young musicians in the world.</p>

<p>yeah. i have a bunch of musical friends at berklee. i dont want to just limit myself to music though</p>
