<p>My D is looking for the same sort of thing in a college. Strong MT and voice performance options, but strong academics as well. She ruled out NYU and CMU because friends there say that it is very difficult to double major. Really they are more conservatory programs within a larger university. Not alot of opportunities if you are outside of the major, and not a lot of opportunities outside of the major if you are in it. CMU does have a double major option, but you would probably need to do summer classes to meet all of the grad requirements for both majors. Other schools on her list, some of which may be more safeties for high stat kids, are GW, Brandeis and Wesleyan.</p>
