<p>How rigorous is the joint program between Johns Hopkins and Peabody (specifically piano performance)? Is it possible to get a degree in something like political science and piano performance in 4 years? Are the campuses close to each other? Anything is appreciated.</p>
<p>Some simple answers to your questions:</p>
<ul>
<li><p>it is extremely rigorous to be part of the Double Degree program between Johns Hopkins and Peabody because you are enrolled at two universities at the same time taking two separate curriculums.</p></li>
<li><p>yes, that is what the double degree program is for ... but for most double degree students the program will take 5 years.</p></li>
<li><p>yes, Peabody and the Homewood campuses are close ... but not walking distance close. It would take a bit more than 30 minutes to walk the distance I think ... but we have a shuttle bus that escorts students between the two campuses.</p></li>
</ul>
