<p>Hello - my daughter has applied to Berklee College of Music. She is interested in their contemporary music program. I have heard that it is very difficult to get into Berklee. Does anyone no of other colleges on the East Coast, other than Belmont who offer this major?</p>
<p>Thank you!</p>

<p>Experience with some acquaintances leads me to believe that it is not that difficult to get into Berklee but maybe they had hidden talent. It wouldn’t surprise me if Belmont were a more difficult admit.</p>
<p>good to know…thank you!</p>
<p>Never heard of The New School, I’ll look it up…thank you!</p>
<p>The New School is the “parent” institution of Mannes College of Music.</p>
