Yes, that is right @SpiritManager. @Cellomom6, teachers are not assigned at IU so this is not a sign of disinterest on the part of the teachers. One must contact the teacher on his/her own. My S contacted the teacher after the audition last year and said something to the effect that he would be interested in joining his studio if he was accepted to and could afford to attend. The scholarship information arrived April 2 last year and after that my son contacted the teacher again.

363

Is it too late to email now or does it really matter? It’s unlikely we can afford it but my son did like the teacher.

364

I’m a little late to the party this year. Two years ago DS2 was applying and is now a music ed/sax sophomore at University of Miami (Frost), having a blast. Now I’ve been through the nightmare once more with DS3 who has applied for Trombone performance. So my user name is now redundant. And as I’m moving from NY to FL this summer it will be completely redundant!
Results accepted by SUNY Purchase, George Mason, Stetson University, UNT.
Still waiting to hear from: Miami (Frost), Lynn, Berklee, USF

DePaul, VP, BM!!! So excited. This is probably my 2nd choice :slight_smile:

Hartt - Intune’s D, VP, BM

letter also included financial package

High five to all those acceptances on the list so far. Hope it grows exponentially in the next week. You may run out of room, Mezzo’sMamma.

367

For my own curiosity…as a parent of a Contemporary/Jazz Musician, I feel a little uninformed about all the talk of “Teachers” and “Studio” assignments at colleges. My son was only interested in schools with Contemporary Music programs so never heard of these terms in regards to applying/acceptances. Would just like to know the process of a music student studying classical music.

Congrats to bluemeringue’s S :smiley:

372

Thanks Oscar63 … I just wish my son weren’t so dead set on Oberlin … I need Valium for next week.

373

Congratulations 2015 Lalo !!!

Northwestern’s Bienen School of Music Intune’s D, VP, BM

D just got the email. Had to recover from my fainting spell before I could post. I really thought this was out of reach plus she did not have her best audition there. OMG. How do you make this decision?

375

@rockinmomab - for jazz/contemporary instrumental with several exceptions there are usually only 1-3 teachers per instrument. Oberlin and NEC actually share a jazz drum set instructor and there is much more overlap in the NYC area as well. Berklee has a whole list and New School has their outside mentorship thing but, that is decided later after you pass out of the initial in house program. It’s a little different than voice and violinists etc. were they are solo instruments, and in an orchestral setting use many more in any given ensemble. Then again, my son’s instrument is a low numbers one per program and hence fewer teachers per school. In his case he was interested in a particular teacher (who generally works with the more advanced students) and had a lesson with him as well as the other teacher. He said in his interview that he hoped to work with teacher #1 and was told with his admission that would be the case.

Someone else her could probably speak to how Berklee and some of the other larger programs assign initial teachers.

376

It is so much fun to see the acceptances coming in. Congratulations, everyone!!

377

@saintsfan‌ thanks! I know my son will have to choose a teacher at Berklee after placement exams but none of this was dependent on acceptance. Thanks so much for the information. I feel a little more in the know now :smile:

378

Congratulations @Tshiknn You’ve got some great choices - it will be hard to make the choice. Always a pity one can only go to one school at a time. But there’s always grad school and summer festivals…

379

@CollegeDadofTwo, my first choice is actually NYU. However, got an outrageously fine scholarship offer from BU and am hoping that lightning strikes twice with a comparable offer from NYU. If not, I just may be Boston bound-- though none of my 4 schools is actually out of the running yet!

This forum has been great! Everyone is so helpful
