In a change from the past - students can now apply to both Yale College and Yale School of Music in senior year of high school (rather than applying Junior year of college.)
"High-school students can now apply to the Yale School of Music’s bachelor of arts/master of music program. Previously open only to Yale College students making plans for graduate school, the revamped degree path allows high-school students to plan simultaneously for college and graduate school. The program is designed for outstanding instrumentalists who are also interested in pursuing a liberal-arts education.
The program, in its expanded form, offers undergraduates the opportunity to spread master’s-degree course requirements and study with YSM faculty over the course of five years. Similarly, Yale College students who begin the program in their senior years can complete some requirements toward their master’s degrees before graduating and enrolling at the School of Music.
The revamped B.A./M.M. program, which comes with no costs beyond Yale College tuition (the School of Music is tuition-free) should be particularly appealing to pre-college students who might otherwise have trouble deciding whether to go the conservatory or university route. As the only music school in the Ivy League, YSM’s B.A./M.M. degree offers students the opportunity to do both at the highest levels of education."
