@brantly I do think the academic environment at Lawrence is much stronger than appears by their acceptance data. It’s a small, somewhat rural school (though Appleton is a cute town) and I just think the student population is pretty self selecting. I actually know several ivy stat kids that chose Lawrence for the intellectual vibe combined with a great merit deal. Musicians and not. We are in a neighboring state and visited not long ago too.

I cannot comment on exactly how the professors work at Lawrence for music majors vs. non-majors. I do know a VP major who also plays piano that gets to study with one of the piano professors on the side. So it is possible to be in a professor’s studio as a non-major. You’d still need to audition I’m sure. You could e-mail and ask. Their admissions department is very responsive.
