<p>As for my safeties, I’m probably applying to 1-2 of the following: University of Illinois-UC, Boston University, The New School, Loyola University Chicago.</p>
<p>I think it’d be great if many of us end up going to the same school for undergrad studies.</p>
<p>I don’t know where I want to go! I live in Arkansas so I want to stay somewhere from the south to about as far north as Virginia/DC because I have a lot of family up there. I just know some good southern/eastern colleges like UNC-CH, Duke, Vandy, William and Mary, Georgetown, etc. Any others about that tier? I don’t think I’d make HYPS and we probably can’t pay for a private school unless I get a great scholarship. My in-state options aren’t that great, either. -_-</p>
<ol>
<li>UNC-Chapel Hill</li>
<li>Duke</li>
<li>Wake Forest</li>

<li>Emory</li>

<p>@Studious-Haha, thanks for putting me back on leveled ground. :)</p>
<p>I like NYU (though it’s way too expensive), UCLA, Chapman, University of Illinois, Berklee, and Wheaton (small Christian college). </p>
<p>Honestly, my main goal is to go to USC for Popular Music/Film Production. </p>
<p>Or I could drop school altogether and become a stoned musician? :D</p>
<p>I honestly wouldn’t mind joining you. I can play guitar, and alto/tenor saxophone if you’re interested. :)</p>
<p>Being a musician =/= money.</p>
<p>And everyone knows money = why they’re going to college</p>
<p>I have a band comp tomorrow about an hour away. I have to be at school at 9:30 am and the comp starts at 1pm. o____0</p>
<p>I beg to differ, nothingto. I tend to look at life from a more cultured perspective than that. Learning, making, achieving, experiencing, et cetera, is why I’m going to college. The money hardly matters.</p>
<p>I digress. I wouldn’t really go to college if I could make $100,000 a year with strong stability. It’s just not needed. Sure, the experience of college (socially and culturally) is important, but, let’s be serious, we could go without it, plus find something which equals to it somewhere in life.</p>
<p>Travel, etc.</p>
<p>Holy crap, I just made a mistake on the argument. I thought you was talking about College. Damn, I have alot on my mind.</p>
<p>But i’ll try to add that, when you do become a musician, and you’re racking on debt, unpaid bills, and stressed financially, then you’ll think of me. I agree you might be doing something you love, but let’s be serious for a moment, and come back to reality. Money is needed to live, and without it, in this era, it’s devastating. But ofcourse, people are different, and have different point of views, so you can disagree.</p>
<p>Music can be a good secondary profession, but I personally don’t believe it should be the main one. 99% of musicians are never heard of because they are not mainstream. Which means they are broke, simply said.</p>
<p>anaychi i agree, it would be awesome if you met people on CC in undergrad</p>
<p>@ATPmolecule my bio teacher from last year would be in love with you because of your name lol</p>
<p>I don’t really have a sorted list… Cornell would be my first, and then in no particular order Tufts, UVA, William and Mary, Williams, Duke, USC, and it would be my dream (as in my parents wouldn’t let me… ) to go to school in Scotland (St Andrews) or England (Kings)</p>
<p>“is why I’m going to college.”</p>
<p>I was talking about college, actually.</p>
<p>Going to college does not guarantee money. There’s people with Master’s degrees sweeping floors or doing other menial jobs. Sure, if you go to college to become a doctor, and you end up earning 100,000 a year, but that’s starting to become not enough for today. </p>
<p>College does not secure financial stability. I believe what you do with your talents, gifts, resources, can be the pathway to make you money. College just gives you the education to know how to keep it. </p>
<p>@anaychi-Really? I always wanted to play the saxophone! How do you like it?</p>
<p>I don’t know how people already know exactly what colleges they want to go to. O_o</p>
<p>I wanna go into the commercial art industry, probably animation. I hear the best animation program is at Ringling but the tuition is enormous…</p>
<p>Tofugirl, if you wanna be a musician and you got the skills, go for it ;)</p>
