<p>Welcome. A opening comment, offered as info. You posted using your real name, thus making you identifiable. Given the nature and purpose of the CC forum, the vast majority veil their identity. While many here know the true identity of fellow posters and may have actually have met and are friends and acquaintances in real life, you may be leaving yourself more “open” within a public forum. Just think about it. If you wish, you can hit the report problem post button and ask a mod to edit out the identifiers within your post. An administrative message link on the sensitive info topic is here <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/college-admissions/1466-posting-essays-other-sensitive-information.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/college-admissions/1466-posting-essays-other-sensitive-information.html</a></p>
<p>There’s some background about California and west coast schools here:<a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/music-major/766215-good-music-universities-california.html?highlight=california[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/music-major/766215-good-music-universities-california.html?highlight=california</a> and the links within that thread.</p>
<p>Are there specific reasons for needing/wanting to be limited geographically to the area mentioned?</p>
<p>“Studying music” encompasses a broad spectrum. If you specified a discipline,or potential major and a bit more musical background beyond your years of study, it might help others in recommending some program options.</p>
<p>Another reason for keeping your name “veiled” is that admissions reps from schools sometimes poke around on the boards and you want to be able to speak freely without fear of a school linking your name with an application! Don’t worry about any of us remembering it,many of us can’t remember what we had for breakfast!! Our “musical” kids have driven us crazy long ago…</p>
