How difficult is it to transfer from one music school to another?

<p>Hey, violadad and cartera, didn’t you two see the Met’s “Aida” this year?!
My apologies, but I still have to watch that one in small (and I use that term very loosely) doses. So much for the “Svelte” ladies of opera, there are still some parts that require quite a bit of heft to maintain, not to mention hauling around the costumes that weigh in at 40-60lbs each!
There are some considerations with transferring and some of them are the same with applying to grad schools at certain schools- if they happen to have a particularly rigorous theory sequence, or requires Eurythemics(yes, look it up!) it’s entirely possible to find that you need to pick up the entire sequence over again. For singers, it’s the languages and maybe acting or dance courses that could make you double up or take some extra time. You have to weigh the time and money against where you really want to be- the earlier the better, would be my advice, no more than a year. But your S may find that he really likes where will be and the “other school” will be nothing but a memory!</p>
