Anyone know anything about this school? My kid is interested in their Music Therapy program, as it is one of the few smaller schools within her 5 hour drive that offers Music Therapy and has a marching band. Close to Pittsburgh for clinical experience, which seems like a plus.

The obvious - Catholic, 60% female, very local (78% in state) and 60% within two counties (Pittsburgh and just East where the school is), and then it’s about 40%+
athletes.
They don’t have a CDS that I saw but 99% get aid. It looks like the base cost is $60K - and they appear to award auto merit - $19K to $30K - so could be less than PA publics.
Don’t know where you live - and not saying the rank I attached below means much (they are #29) - but maybe others within 5 hours might be Shenandoah, Nazarus, Elizabethtown, Marywood, Montclair State, and many more.
Hope that helps.

Thanks. She has looked (online) at others that offer music therapy and not many have the Marching Band. Shenandoah does, but price point is higher and the program is part of their music conservatory, which has a different feel than a school that happens to have music and theater (more cut throat in who can participate in ensembles and productions). Was just curious if anyone has had any direct experience with the school.
