Is she trying to get into the Music school? If so, you’re gonna need “chance me” help from somebody familiar with the Blair School cuz, in some important ways, they are kinda different.

Blair is a performance based application. The application will include a pre-screen audition tape, interviews, live auditions and pre-admission music theory examination. http://blair.vanderbilt.edu/admissions/apply.php
