This http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/music-major/527476-curtis-upenn.html?highlight=columbia is probably the most recent all inclusive thread on the Ivy/conservatory and similar type programs.

There are numerous prior references scattered throughout in various threads.

The general consensus is that the programs are a) extremely competitive academically; b) some of the toughest admits musically c) extremely limited in numbers and d) can be logistically challenging.

There are a couple of students on the 2008 Master List of Final Decisions at the Harvard/NEC and Tufts/NEC programs, plus at least one at Yale for music academic pursuits. There’s a link in the '09 Master Acceptances thread that will get you to the '08 versions. You may want to pm them directly if you don’t get board responses. http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/1060444930-post136.html the last post.
