Hello! Still not completely sure if I’m replying correctly- darn being new to college confidential. But anyways…

Thank you for the heads-up concerning terminology; it didn’t sound rude to me, I understand you’re just helping to further my legitimacy as a musician.

And yeah, there are so many paths… I hadn’t fully realized all the options open to me. On one hand it’s a relief and on the other hand it’s overwhelming. As long as I nurture my musical side at an academically and musically strong school, I think I will be happy with where I go. The notion of a double-degree program with a college department, as well as some of the collaborations between conservatories and universities, look prospective and I will continue to muse on them. A massive thanks to everyone on this forum- it’s only been a day and I already feel far more aware of my options and preferences.
