<p>Just to add to Mezzo’sMama post - New Paltz and Purchase do not have music education majors. They do have other music and theatre majors(mostly BA’s) and the environments have a very ‘artsy’ feel compared to other SUNY schools (except Fredonia and Potsdam) - New Paltz has many music extra curriculars and clubs. But Fredonia and Potsdam, I think, are still the SUNY music schools to go to for music performance or music education. I would recommend New Paltz to someone who wants a nonmusic major but still wants to be active in music extracurricularly.</p>
<p>My d loved Fredonia!!! She didn’t visit or audition at Crane because of the location, so I can’t comment on that one.</p>
