Musical kid but doesn’t want music school

My daughter is a dancer (also does music but her intense training is dancing). We are at the decision time now. She applied to a few conservatory programs & a few colleges with no audition but a dance & theatre department. And from our experience any school that allows a creative supplement will seriously consider it. She’s gotten into a few of those & they all gave her talent/merit money.

And now if I may, hijack the thread a bit

@thumper1 I noticed your child goes to SCU. That is one of the schools that has give my D talent money. What has your child’s experience been there? What is the quality & opportunity of the performing arts?

@WestOfPCH I noticed the Peabody icon. (That is another school my D has been accepted to.) So, I assume you have a child there? What has your child’s experience been there in terms of academics & art? Also, we finding it very difficult to learn much about Peabody. What is the core curriculum? How many courses do they take at homewood? Do they feel a part of JHU?
