I don’t know bass faculty either, but the list above is generally a great start. Based on our experience (engineering/horn), I’d add Case Western/CIM. Case can be generous with merit aid on the academic side if your son has good test scores to go with his GPA. As mentioned, merit aid at Northwestern is practically nonexistent. JHU also offers little (very few, large merit academic scholarships and little else); Peabody offers some aid, but dual-degree students get their aid through JHU. UMich offers a fair number of $20k engineering merit scholarships to OOS kids with stellar stats - OOS tuition is still steep, but it helps. They also have some larger but even more competitive scholarships. CMU will let you do a true dual degree, but they do not make it easy as their processes in the colleges of music and engineering are completely independent. There is limited academic merit aid.
