Update

For those who wanted to know (thumperdad lol and others,)

I have chosen Loyola New Orleans to go to this year...

LONG STORY. I got no scholarship or anything to Miami even though I qualified (I fought with them but they did not budge.) And I can't afford 200k+...in a field that I may not make too much money at least to start lol. Whereas loyola without money would be like 150k...but i got 14k a year so it's a lotttt less than Miami.

Harumph. I was disappointed when I got notification but what can you do? I'm looking forward to Loyola! Anybody else going?

Jeremy, congrats! I really think you are going to enjoy the vibe on the other
side of the fence (from Tulane, that is). Good luck and be sure and take advantage of all the wonderful opportunities at Loyola.

Jeremy - congratulations on the decision. I thought maybe my D and you were going to be the last to decide, but there are still a few days left.

Weird scenario--and correction--They're not considering me for a music scholarship, but just general..AND I HAVE ONE MORE WEEK until I have to decide already and they're not letting me know.
I might just completely screw it at this point lol. I'm so confused. I still want to go there but I can't do anything. Any advice? haha.

This prof. hasn't emailed me back yet.

Yup, Loyola is definitely more expensive, but it's ultimately my number one choice (Loyola is basically tied for number one and i know i'd be perfectly happy there and I love it there, but I thought maybe being in a bigger school of music would be better for me. We'll see though how things play out haha.)
