[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Possibly because they show promise, and/or are willing to commit to learning less popular instruments for the chance to participate in opportunities offered to the entire student body. I’d also guess that the admissions team might try to offer opportunities to students who haven’t had much access to instruction, despite their evident potential. If this is the case, I’d applaud that. Training promising young students from under-resourced public schools and communities is a goal that has at least as much value as taking capable students with all of the benefits that private lessons and extensive preparation can offer them — especially when it comes to receiving an in-state publicly financed education. [/quote] Yes, I agree with this. I didn’t understand how the school worked, but your explanation here has a lot of value and makes sense. Thank you! [/quote]
