Yes, there are still some core requirements outside of music…fewer if the student’s primary major is in Blair, though. But IIRC there was, for example, a 1 semester math requirement that was covered through his DE stats class…and some others. Not a ton of classes, but it was nice that he had them all covered already and could dive right in to focusing on music. Also, interestingly, Vanderbilt gives credit for 2 classes for AP Art History, which is what motivated him to do an art history minor…he already had credit for I think 2 out of 7 required classes (you can’t use AP credit toward a major in art history, though, just a minor).
