Ok, I know I've done a lot of music college related posts and this is going to be the last one for a while, I promise.
I'm looking to get a degree in cello performance either as a BM or BA (and I know a couple of these schools only offer a BA).
So I'm just wondering, how many colleges/conservatories does a music student need to apply to? Is it better to apply to 10 colleges and possibly get into several of those? Or is the right thing to do to apply to five or less schools and only get into one or two of those schools, or not even get into any?
Here is a list of schools that I know I will be applying to the music programs for definite:
- University of Michigan
- Baldwin Wallace Conservatory
- Miami University
- Denison University
- Mount Union University
Here is a list of schools that I'm not sure about applying to or will be applying to them just to see if I get in or as a backup school:
- Kenyon College
- Vassar College
- University of Cincinnati Conservatory
- Oberlin College Conservatory
So maybe to I need to make the list of schools I will be applying to shorter or longer? Or is this too many schools to be considering applying to and should I only apply to schools that I know for definite that I want to apply to (the first list on this post)? Any suggestions/help on this would be greatly appreciated.
