<p>The list cited contains both public and private. Without additional detail from a musical experience perspective, it’s difficult to come up with a list.</p>
<p>The cc search function does not allow a two letter search PA,CT, NY, etc.<br>
Some past threads with a variety of northeast options:</p>

<p>NY- Potentially Ithaca, Syracuse, a number of the SUNYs (Fredonia, Potsdam, Purchase)
PA- Penn State, Susquehanna, Gettysburg
NJ- Rutgers, TCNJ, Rowan
MA- I’ll throw in Boston Conservatory, but the OP said university.</p>
<p>I can think of nothing in NH, VT or ME from a performance standpoint. I would not recommend anything in CT beyond Hartt for performance.</p>
<p>These are representative and by no means inclusive. Just a few potential options based on the limited info provided.</p>
