Garnet, you should try posting in the [url=http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/forumdisplay.php?f=24]Columbia[/url] or [url=http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/forumdisplay.php?f=232]Juilliard[/url] forums to see if someone can give you more specific feedback. I’m guessing that like most college scheduling, you’d have various courses and sections to choose from; it would be up to you to try to work out a schedule that minimized running back and forth. Be aware, too, that the sheer hours involved in maintaining an academic courseload at Columbia, an instruction/coursework schedule at Juilliard, practicing piano, commuting, and playing a Division I varsity sport would be truly daunting and would probably leave zero time to enjoy the college experience.

Whichever schools you start to get serious about, be sure to talk to actual students in the programs and try to get some honest feedback. Good luck!
