OperaSinger2000,
Just my two cents for what it's worth but I looked at Hartt before but the general message/vibe I got was that it was not the place to go for vocal music. I don't think it's a terrible school but I have heard that the voice teachers there aren't the best-one person I know strongly urged me to stay away in fact...however, this is only what I've heard through the grapevine or what I've been told, nothing based on personal experience but it was enough to cause me to look elsewhere. I would advise you to visit and have a lesson with the teachers you are interested in studying with and see if you like them. Ask them questions on their teaching methods, studio, lessons, etc. Also, take a look at some of their alumni and see what they are doing. I have found that contacting students and asking their opinions of the school and teachers is extremely helpful. Facebook is a great resource. Lastly, be careful to not get blown away by a school's prestige. It may be a prestiges school but not the best fit for you or what you're looking for. Best of luck to you in your final decision! You have some excellent schools to pick from!
