I’m currently looking at schools right now so I can plan my classes to transfer with from my community college. Does anyone know any univeristies in California that have a commercial music/popular music & music business/industry major? I really want to do them both because I know music performance is more classical and that’s not what I want.
I’m looking for the same thing
USC https://music.usc.edu/departments/ (all the areas of study you want)
U. of Pacific (music industry_ https://www.pacific.edu/academics/schools-and-colleges/conservatory-of-music/academics/degrees-offered.html
CalArts https://music.calarts.edu/programs-specializations (digital, tech, pop/experiemental)
I looked at Long Beach and Berkeley but didn’t fit. You could look at all the UC’s and CSU’s to check I suppose.
Are you limited to California? I have a long list for other locations.

What kind of music do you prefer to listen to? I really like rock lately. But sometimes Cartoon Sound Effect inspires me more I can be inspired to work with simple sounds and this motivates me to work further. It is also very cool that then I can legally use the sounds I found for my own purposes.
I think USC has something like that.
I’d be interested in your long list for other locations outside of CA.

Hi - I found your post from Apr 2020 in which you indicated you had a long list of colleges that offer commercial music/popular music & Music Business/Industry. I know it’s been a while, but in the remote chance you still have that list, it would be of great help for my undecided son!!! Best regards from Washington, DC! ILANA
