[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thank you for the valuable info. If you could suggest some schools, that would be great. She is undecided on major but leaning toward something where she could use her unusual talent for foreign languages and her love of history and travel. She def want to play in College ensembles. She is ranked #2 in her class right now. Also captain of Varsity tennis (she got on team in 7th), first singles. Thanks again. No soothers schools, she is very liberal….she went to marches etc[/quote]OP, and I speak from experience, gather the schools your DC is interested in and go straight to the music department and confer with the symphony/chamber/band conductor and inquire what are their instrument needs.  My DC's instrument was under represented at a few of the colleges DC was interested in.  A few well placed words to the admissions office from the music department didn't hurt, and my DC had strong  academics.  Also, when the admissions representatives visited DC's school, DC made it a point to talk about the instrument.  There are no guarantees but it won't help to reach out to schools your DC is interested in.[/quote]PP again.  DC has played in several high proficiency venues.[/quote]
