Mdndad, if your son has very strong stats, he may be a great candidate for the presidential and trustee (half and full tuition) at USC Thornton, which, aside from being highly selective w/great academics, has an incredible jazz program - that, fyi, DOES require prescreens for sax*. USC also loves to encourage double majors and minors, which although very difficult in four years with a BM, would be possible with a BA (they offer both).

*When it comes to jazz sax, you should expect prescreens to be the norm.
