<p>I am looking for a nice college, Not too big, that has a good marching band and a nice football stadium to play in to make it an even better experience. But It Has to offer a music education program. Thanks you Very much. NOTE: The Band does Not have to Be GIANT AND AMAZING. Just a nice size.</p>

<p>Lots of big public universities, especially in the South.</p>

<p>The HBCUs are notorious for having amazing marching bands, but the colleges most likely don’t have the prestige you’re looking for.</p>

<p>Thank You, I am New To CC, And not to sure how to work it to well. Sooo How do i get there may i ask u.</p>

<p>Those are Pretty Big but thank you very much. :D</p>

<p>oh i see u gave me a link… thanks</p>

<p>Can you tell us more? Will you be a music major? </p>

<p>Do you have a budget or will your family pay the whole costs for wherever you go? </p>

<p>Most/all of the schools listed are OOS publics, so they’re not going to give great need based aid. However, a few may give you merit based aid, if you need it and have the right stats.</p>

<p>Baylor University is not huge and I believe it has a marching band and I believe, a music education program.</p>

<p>Furman is a top 50 liberal arts college (larger than most; about 2700) with an excellent music school and a nice marching band. It, Gettysburg and Wooster are the only national-caliber LACs that I know of which have good bands, and Furman would have the most prominent music program of the three.</p>

<p>Yes i would be a music major and my grandfather is willing to pay all costs</p>

<p>HBCUs and pretty much any D1 school where football is the biggest sport on campus.</p>

<p>Nothing beats a game at Ohio State in Columbus, but it is a huge school.</p>

<p>Ohio University in Athens has always had a good marching band, and their football team has been pretty good the last few years.</p>

<p>Syracuse University (NY)</p>

<p>Any Big 10 school.</p>

<p>BYU in Provo, Utah has amazing music programs and incredible marching band, it is Mormon and way out west, and highly selective, but check it out.</p>

<p>University of Michigan!</p>

<p>Notre Dame is smaller in size than the state U’s and has a great marching band, a great stadium, and a music major.</p>

<p>What do you consider to be an adequate football stadium? Also, I’m guessing that you want a school where students actually “pack the stadium”, right? You don’t want to perform to empty seats, right?</p>

<p>What are your test scores and GPA? What is your budget?</p>

<p>3.59 GPA and i am a junior with A,B Average grades. (GPA WILL PROBABLY RISE).I am Not aware of the budget because My family members have been saving every since i was little for my cousins and I. All I know is that he is they are willing to pay for whatever college is right for me. I am not looking for a giant college like Penn State or Michigan. my TOPS of the amount of Students is about 17-20,000. the stadium doesn’t have to be packed entirely. i would just like to march on to the field feeling great, aiming horn high in the stands, Playing with a nice group of musicians. the only thing is that maybe a college that you dont have to audition for the the marching band would be good because i dont want to go there just for the band program and not get into my favorite ensemble. The stadium doesnt have to be a dome.</p>
