Yeah haha, I’ve seen quite a few discussions about the same issue, but I wanted to post myself to ask about my specific situation. I saw on Clive Davis’s FAQ that their admission rate is 60 out of 500. My plan was originally to apply to one and list the other as my second choice, but neither are available as second choice majors unfortunately, which is why I’m more concerned about getting into one of the programs now.
I think one of my biggest issues in deciding one is that I’m equally interested in the business and artistry aspects, and I feel like Steinhardt would deprive me of all the opportunities to develop myself as an artist that Clive Davis provides–conversely, I’m not confident Clive Davis will prepare me as a businessperson in the industry well enough. I’m mostly nervous to miss out on what the other provides (and possibly miss out on both if the program I apply to has admissions that are too competitive).
