<p>The summer of my junior year I attended Carnegie Mellon's Pre-College program for music. I have performed in my school's variety show and chamber music concerts. I am a member of ASCAP and have had lyrics published by Boosey and Hawkes.</p>
<p>Obviously, I am going to college for music - I am very interested and planning on pursuing a music ed degree, or possibly BM in music with an outside field. I also have an interest in communications (ie TV/film/radio/journalism) - I feel I would do well in this field. I enjoy writing and editing and have an artistic eye. I absolutely love choral singing and have considered choral conducting as a possible career. </p>
<p>I am a twin, how much of a factor is this in relation to financial aid?</p>
<p>I appreciate any thoughts - thanks so much!</p>
