Would also like info on a typical course load for a piano or violin major?

I know a little about the course loads at Curtis v Juilliard – basically Juilliard seems more intense/heavier.

My D is a double bass in her 1st year at Juilliard. Her teacher also teaches at Curtis (he commutes) and outright said during the pre-audition process that Curtis is “cushy” and Juilliard is a grind. My D is experiencing the grind – it’s only been the first two weeks though. @anotheroboemom may have opinions on this too!
