<p>My son was accepted to the following schools for a BM in music composition/piano:</p>
<p>NYU Steinhardt
Carnegie Mellon
Berklee College of Music
Boston Conservatory
Chapman University
Cal State Long Beach</p>
<p>Rejections: several </p>
<p>Anyone have any ideas about which college he should go to?</p>
<p>certainly depends on what kind of music he wishes to compose and what he wants to pursue performance wise , but Berklee does have some of the most extensive and wide-ranging composition options i’ve seen</p>
<p>Congratulations to ClassOf2015Mom and son, and once again to agmom and daughter, and to allegrovivace.</p>
<p>ClassOf2015Mom, I am going to put the Carnegie Mellon acceptance down as a BFA instead of a BM because I believe that is what they offer there. Please let me know if I am wrong.</p>
<p>D accepted for BM Jazz Performance (voice) at the Peabody Institute via email</p>
<p>Congratulations LGSMom and daughter.</p>

<p>max, congrats. Can you specify an instrument? And once again, congrats to thelovelybones.</p>
<p>theloveybone … congrats … I remember when you first started posting and now it looks like you have quite a few nice options. To many of you here, Cheers!</p>
<p>Classof2015Mom, if you go back to posts 708-710 within this thread, there’s a couple of suggestions and a link that may help you start to make heads or tails about choosing. There are some specific items of import that are more a concern to comp majors than instrumentalists or vocalists and if you would start a new thread much like bassdad2 has done, I can point you in a couple of directions, and potential sources of info.</p>

<p>slidemama, congratulations. When you come down from cloud 9, if you wish us to post the full scholarship, we’ll need a dollar amount or your best estimate. We could ballpark it from the website, but without knowing if it’s full tuition, or a complete full ride including housing and fees, we’d only be guessing.</p>
