Have you thought about Peabody Conservatory of Music in Baltimore, MD.? That is a very good music school. It is just for music, though.
I'll have to check into that. Do they have a site you could link me to?

Trying going to Junior College for 2 years to take care of general ed requirements and then transfer into wherever you need to go. It's easier to transfer in, rather than go straight in from high school. And BYU is pretty crowded. It is so crowded that you are forced to take a semester off if you take 2 semesters in a row.
Junior College? What's that?
I can't imagine that it would be that bad to go to BYU.

Why do you think Ricks College changed to BYU-I and is converting to a 4-year school?

IF you're interested in a music Degree...Western Michigan University has an EXCELLENT program. So does Michigan State University...and they have an LDS living center. You can check out the Details under MIchigan, East Lansing Institute at LDS.org. IT's a great place to live and socialize and has a great music scene.

I knew a BUM load of music students when I lived at the living Center.

If you're looking to get into the business aspect of music...look to colleges in and around Nashville TN. Vanderbilt or Tennessee State could also be good choices. I have heard really great things about both of those universities for Music and the business aspect of it as well.

OF COURSE there is also Berklee in Boston....

Do some research and go where you want to go....

Thx Estump, those posts were actually helpful. I'm going to go look into those then.

I didn't grow up in Utah, but BYU was the best place I could have gone. I loved it - I liked a lot of people - I liked feeling like I had to make my place among all the others who were great achievers. Its not impossible to get in. They do have an AWESOME business program but it is even tougher to get in. And as for being dumb in the business program ... not happening. Part of the requirements to get in are College Calculus and Statistics - not business math. And business is a good degree, especially if you find an emphasis within it. As for the music program, its good, but not the best available. There are a lot of talented musicians at BYU so it is pretty competitive. I would talk to your guidance counselor if that is the direction you want to go. She should have a list of the top music schools.
