You can’t actually double major at Harvard - instead you have a “joint concentration”, which is a single concentration that combines study in two areas. A joint concentration requires a thesis, and this thesis must incorporate both disciplines. I believe someone actually did combine music and physics a few years back, resulting in an interesting physics musical being produced.

As for the New England Conservatory programme, check out the link below. It’s probably also worth pointing out that you can apply to take part in between the freshman and junior years at Harvard.
