[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does anyone have any experience with an applicant who is a talented musician, but doesn’t wish to pursue conservatory? We aren’t sure if there are particular programs or schools where she might be positioned to either double major or play with a school orchestra. This is a kid with who is competitive at a national level on a historically male dominated instrument.[/quote] Look up the Musical Studies Program at Oberlin College and Conservatory. It's part of the college but taps into the resources of the conservatory. Oberlin started the program a few years ago because many of its students in the college had significant music backgrounds, but did not want to be a conservatory student (which is a fairly intense commitment). My daughter sounds a lot like yours and she investigated a lot of prograns and started at Oberlin and began this major last year (likely will double major with chem). She loves it.[/quote]
