@EVDLLD You got some great suggestions above. You really need to look at the curriculum at each school. Do not assume that because a school is a university that she will be able to take a lot of academic classes. There is a big difference between Carnegie Mellon and NYU/Michigan, for example. Carnegie Mellon is essentially a conservatory even though it is housed in a university.
Does she want to audition for programs? This is a major decision she needs to make right now.
