If you're admitted to WCAS, you can't have a major in another school. If you were admitted to the music school, you could also major in something in WCAS.

I'm pretty sure you can only transfer to the School of Music once accepted into WCAS. The AdComs said that if you double major or minor and you're a student of the School of Music, your PRIMARY major has to be in the school of music (for a performance major at least, i'm not sure about the non-performance degree). But it's super hard to get admitted as a freshman, or transfer once accepted to any other Northwestern college.
You can't minor at the music school if it's performance.

it's not a conservatory so you can't really compare. But I've heard is the best non-conservatory. I love that about northwestern...

SO yea... HARD. CORE.
