<p>After taking several calculus courses, my daughter decided against the double degree program so that she would have more time in the Conservatory for secondary lessons in jazz and on viola da gamba. I understand that this is fairly commonplace, however. Something like a quarter to a third of the students in the Conservatory participate in the double degree program at some point in their career, and perhaps half of them complete it.</p>
<p>Note that Bard does not offer an undergrad degree in voice, if that matters to the OP.</p>
