<p>The pool for music ed may not be as competitive as performance, but you have to understand you are auditioning on one of the most competitive instruments. Also, some performance applicants will list music ed as a second choice for a major thinking that if they do not get accepted for performance, they may get in for education. We (well, actually my d) just finished college auditions for flute performance. Please feel free to message me with any direct questions.</p>
