Hey All, thank you for the suggestions. ANy west coast schools that have both strong academic and music programs.

@Pixieberto, thank you for starting the thread. We are, for now, in a similar boat.
Mwolf mentioned Pamona- is it the Pamona of the Clairmont consortium?

Thanks in advance!

Pomona (BA) , “Harvard of the West”, UCBerkeley (BA resembling BM), University of the Pacific (BM), University of Puget Sound (BM), Whittier (BA), Stanford (BA), USC (BM), UWashington (BM), Lewis and Clark (BA)…the BM schools also offer BA’s but the BA schools noted don’t offer BM’s

@tugogi is your musician looking for a BM or BA? Read the Double Degree Dilemma essay in the Read Me thread closer to the top of this forum. A BM will be 2/3 to 3/4 music classes and a BA 1/4-1/3 music classes (except for UCBerkeley).

There is another thread on west coast schools…

@compmom, thank you! Inclined towards a BM.
I will check the west coast schools thread also.
