<p>Yankee, you are talking two distinct paths … music and sports. In music, you will be competing with people that live and breath music 24/7. (They may not even know the name of any players on any major sports teams.) These musicians and their reps play music, create music, hang out with others like them in nearly all their waking moments. For any Bachelor’s degree you will have to complete some base coursework that does not directly apply to your major, but is part of a degree program. People get through these courses by mixing them in with other courses that are part of their major path. Without knowing your background, I can’t give you any specific advice, as it’s important to understand the baseline of who you are (background, academic strengths/weaknesses, work ethic, experiences and successes in music, and your actual personality and ability work with people.).</p>
