<p>Please add University of Nevada, Reno Department of Music and Dance (Reno, NV). </p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>Just curious…what is the purpose of the above list of colleges and WHERE did it come from?</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>DS graduated from the school of music at BU. As I recall, it was the Boston University, College of Fine Arts, Department of Music.</p>

<p>Did they change the name to “School of the Arts”? I never heard BU’s music program referred to as that but sometimes things change. Just curious if this has changed.</p>

<p>If you are listing colleges with GREAT trumpet programs, you really need to add Grand Valley State in Michigan.</p>

<p>Also, North Carolina School of the Arts is now officially UNIVERSITY of North Carolina School of the Arts.</p>

<p>I was also wondering what exactly this list represented? Is it a list of all music programs or more specific to certain instruments? It seems to be listed by Major University first.</p>

<p>Thumper, BU is still the Boston University, College of Fine Arts, in which there is the School of Music. </p>

<p>I believe that Eastman is considered the Eastman School of Music at the University of Rochester, not the other way around. Correct me if I am wrong.</p>

<p>Just a list I found online of schools that offer a music degree. </p>

<p>Thought maybe someone would find use in it. It is a couple years old from what I can tell so that would explain name changes not being up do date.</p>

<p>I have another one that seems a bit better and will post it after this, not sure if they have any value to most people, but maybe somebody gets something.</p>

<p>I was curious as well as to the source(s), or means of compilation. It would/could potentially help others in an initial search. Other than that, it is large and varied in scope and a quick scan reveals a few programs of “note” conspicuous by their absence.</p>

<p>Virtually EVERY college in the country has some kind of music program. I’m not sure either of the above lists is particularly helpful in narrowing down music programs for potential applicants…at all.</p>

<p>Ok fine have them deleted or just let the thread disappear.</p>

<p>Just a list.</p>

<p>Kind of the usual supects.</p>

<p>Sorry for the inconvenience.</p>

<p>Trumpet -
I liked the list. Since D is in the application stage, and still willing to add schools, it’s fun to use it as a springboard for further research. As you said - just a list!</p>

<p>I’m guessing these lists came from things like College Board searches or the like. Hence my curiosity - why would a school with a music program NOT show up? I can certainly understand the real heavy hitters not showing up (as in, if you don’t already now about us, you’re not good enough to go here), but here’s an example:</p>

<p>Gettysburg is a popular LAC school choice for our HS. My friend keeps telling me that when they’re on tours they are really pushing their conservatory program (Sunderman). Nobody on this board seems to have any real info, and they keep missing the lists. Is it poor marketing, or a poor program. Sorry - this sounds like a hijack, but it’s more stream of conciousness.</p>

<p>Susquehanna is another school that has a fine music program. Add that to the list too.</p>

<p>Lawrence University is another one…very fine music program and good willingness to let students double major in another field.</p>

<p>How about Oberlin or Baldwin Wallace? Westminster Choir College?</p>

<p>Shenandoah? I don’t think anyone is objecting to the list but rather a general statement as to its purpose. I don’t.</p>

<p>The amount of knowledge on this forum ranges from complete neophyte to extremely knowledgeable. To some, it is obviously a list of institutions of higher learning with music schools, departments, or programs. To others, it may only be a list of colleges.</p>

<p>In the interest of providing information, I would have anticipated at least a general purpose or title. And that’s just my opinion.</p>

<p>the list is too much and too little: how can you list Muhlenberg (with a tiny faculty and no real performance program) or (I picked it at random and googled it) Our Lady of the Lake in San Antonio, with only 2 full time faculty with DMA’s - so nobody with a PhD teaching music history or theory – and not Oberlin? Even in the same area as Muhlenberg, there is Moravian College, which has more going on…
not to criticize anyone for posting lists…but as someone mentioned, just about every college does have some kind of music program, and to look at their websites, they are quite proud of them. That doesn’t mean that someone who wants to be a performer or future grad student in music should go just anywhere…in that sense, the list can be unhelpful. What you might want to know is, what are schools at which students thrive in music studies and from which students have success going forward.</p>

<p>WOW Imagine my shock. That a simple list of music schools would be so controversial. </p>

<p>I hope all of the information any of you post here is perfect, no missing possibilities, no inclusions that are not definitive. No not every school offers music. This list probably covers about a third of those that do, and probably 90% or more of those that have significant programs. It was a list I found using google. There are some of these lists out there, this seemed one of the better ones and why not have it here.</p>

<p>Maybe I am the only beginner that as a starting point did a few google searches to find a list of possibilities no matter how imperfect it might be. That is why I did not represent it as some definitive list. Just a list.</p>

<p>Like I said, if I had the power to delete the thread I would have. If you have influence with a moderator see if it can be deleted since it seems to offend so many by its imperfection.</p>

<p>But those that see the most problems with it are probably those that have no need for it because their knowledge is way beyond those of us that find such a list useful.</p>

<p>I would gladly let the list disappear into obscurity by no one posting here again. Or if someone wants to take the time it could be added to, modified, maybe another column added separating schools by relevance and it could be useful to some of us newbies.</p>

<p>nothing personal meant - it is just a list!</p>

<p>Maybe I should have called it A List of Every School in the United States of any Value that Offers a Music Course. Then the comments would not have surprised me so much and the criticims would have made sense.</p>

<p>But fear not, I was in no way offended, just surprised that everyone thought that it was of no value and if anything harmful.</p>

<p>That is what is was meant for, a starting point for newbies. The list itself was of course not all inclusive. My attitude was here is a list that is a good start, lets see what we can add and remove to make it better. Not it sucks and is worthless because it is not perfect.</p>

<p>Here is the link to the second list</p>

<p>[Music</a> Schools/Programs in the United States of America](<a href=“http://www.univsource.com/music.htm]Music”>Discover Best Colleges In U.S. - U.S. News Best Colleges)</p>

<p>I thought the rules prevented me from linking to it so I did not include it. They include links to all the schools which I tried to include here by copy and pasting the HTML which did not work. I settled for just the list.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>This is the last line of the above link. At least that explains why Colburn isn’t on the list.</p>

<p>I looked up English departments, out of curiosity - for starters it leaves out all liberal arts colleges (e.g. top English programs, like Amherst, Williams, Pomona, Oberlin…) so maybe that explains something about the website in general. Of course EVERY school in the country has an English department…</p>
