Music Education (Parent of Junior)

The competitiveness of each school differs depending on where you apply!

Definitely don’t audition 20 schools and mostly likely once your daughter finds out places or programs/schools she is genuinely interested in. She won’t go over 10 schools. And even then: ngl, most people don’t actually need to audition to ten schools, especially if your daughter has string musicianship and great academics; she can narrow down her options based on school locations, class structure, course load, undergrad graduation requirements, the general vibes of schools-- and get down to fav 5-7 schools to audition at most.
Auditioning more than that amount of schools can exhaust you and your daughter and spend a lot of money and time on applications you def don’t favor as much. Goodluck to your daughter on her music ed adventures!!
