<p>We just returned from Boston and my son spoke to the Music Dept head at BU - he said you can minor in performance but cannot double major - their music program is too demanding. Ithaca you must apply as ONE major - so if you want to double major - you would apply to the harder program (music performance). I do know a friend of my son and daughter is a music major there and he finds it is very demanding and little time for a second major. Cornell you could double major in music and another major. My son is in the same boat interested in double majoring (math and music performance). Also, Carnegie Mellon does offer a dual degree program BHA and BSA - Bachelor of Arts and Humanities and Bachelor of Science and Arts. Case Western (which we haven’t looked at yet) has a program with Cleveland so you can dual major.</p>
