Music Schools in NEW YORK

<p>Hi,</p>

<p>I'm a senior in High School applying to music school as an voice/opera major for next year. It is important to me that I go to New York (or at least a couple of hours away). Are there any good schools that I'm missing? Recommendations? This is my list at the moment:</p>

<p>Manhattan School of Music (Top choice)
Mannes the New School For Music
The Juilliard School
Eastman School of Music
The Hartt School (CT)
Yale School of Music
Westminster Choir College (NJ)
Purchase College?
Hunter College?</p>

<p>I just don't want to apply to ALL extremely competitive places and end up nowhere. Anywhere I'm missing in New York?</p>

<p>Thank you!</p>

<p>Why NY? Try the Music Forum available down on the main page.</p>

<p>If you’re thinking of Rochester then it seems like you could consider Peabody in Baltimore and, unless location is crucial, I get the sense from the music major thread that a lot depends on what you think of the teachers available at the particular school and that you should try to look as broadly as possible. So study the music major forum.</p>
