A couple of thoughts on your post.

First, unfortunately there are not many current students who are hanging out at CC. The forum is very fortunate to have several parents who continue to post here after their kids are off to school. But as to the kids themselves, life of a BFA is likely a bit too time consuming to spend much time on CC.

Second, quite a few of your questions are addressed here or can be found in other sources. Someone may correct me on this but I don’t see how a double major is in the cards anywhere if you really are interested in pursuing a BFA. If you really want a double major, you should be pursuing a BA. There was just a post here recently discussing some of the few schools where you could do a minor.

Third, your list has all sorts of schools with very different characteristics. You might be able to pare your list down to something more reasonable to investigate by thinking harder about what it is you are looking for.

Fourth, everyone struggles with how to investigate the number of schools you have to apply to when seeking a BFA. Most have come to a compromise similar to what we have of visiting some schools that are nearby and applying to others in which we may not have perfect information. Hopefully, my daughter will have choices at the end of this process so we can do further investigation.

Good luck with your search.
