<p>Anyone can give me advice as in what to look for when I finalize my decisions? I have limited down my choices to USC, CIM, MSM, Eastman. I got my first choice teachers for all of them.</p>

<p>It’s a recurring theme. <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/music-major/1115496-eastman-vs-northwestern-vs-nyu-vs-cal-flute.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/music-major/1115496-eastman-vs-northwestern-vs-nyu-vs-cal-flute.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>Same advice as has given before: do not go into large debt for your undergraduate degree. If that is not a factor, is there one of the teachers that you had a better report with? Is there a campus you liked better? If you can, go visit and get an other lesson. This time is will be different because you will be evaluating differently. You will need to envision yourself there and studying with that person, in that studio, in that school for 4 years. No one can give you the answer. Only you can decide the best fit for you.</p>

<p>thelovelybones, if you would care to tell us who the teachers are it might help others with direct experience to answer your question. We also keep track of that information in our spreadsheet for <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/music-major/1045522-master-list-music-school-acceptances-fall-2011-a-48.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/music-major/1045522-master-list-music-school-acceptances-fall-2011-a-48.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>thelovelybones, I recall you did some regional auditions. Can you tell us which campuses you had the opportunity to visit? Financial aid packages should arrive soon, which will be another factor in the decisions. Congrats again on your wonderful choices!</p>
