D's interview at Eastman was one on one not group but I am guessing this is a Music Ed thing. Also, in her audition there were about 5 undergrads in the room listening as well. D was given the choice to have them in there or not, she said it seemed easier to have them there. The professor was not chatty at all with her but I found out from the girl that auditioned before D that he was not with her either. Both she and my D said it was hard to read him. It's ok though, Eastman is a HUGE longshot for D even though she said she played the best she has ever played (always a good thing just not always a sure thing).

SUNY Fredonia was awesome. D just fell in love with the school. We were not expecting this by any means. The facilities and campus there are really wonderful. It seems like they are constantly trying to make improvements to everything there. A good portion of their students go on to do their graduate work at Eastman and other top notch schools. The horn professor was really great, friendly and D said he seemed really excited about teaching. He is a graduate of JHU (D noticed his diploma).

We have NYU-Steinhardt in 2 weeks. That is our last one, if anyone has any experience there I would totally appreciate it.
