<p>I was planning on applying to Berklee as a jazz major, but I decided not to. I got a lot of negative impressions of the school. Most of it was that it seemed like a very “hip” or “trendy” kind of school. The kid behind me in Government class who was a hip-hop DJ was accepted and is going to Berklee. If your son is into fusion stuff, maybe that’s the school for him. But if he is into straight-ahead jazz, and even classical music I think Miami sounds like a great choice. </p>
<p>If you haven’t seen these videos you should check them out! It’s a combo of Miami students who are all freshman!
