<p>Again, I believe they are discussing a combined degree between engineering and MUSIC and not the BFA in MT. There are many schools that allow a dual degree over five years for Engineering and music… I think CMU or Tufts are examples. I haven’t seen a combo of Engineering and a BFA in MT by anyone before. If Mich allows it, great…but that is not how I read the site. Maybe it is allowed. I would definitely talk to someone in MT at UMich. Please realize that the Music School at UMich encompasses other degree programs besides a BFA in MT. So, a statement that says that engineering can be combined with programs in music is NOT the same as stating it can be combined with the BFA in MT. If it can, great. But one could infer it the way I just described as well. If UMich allows a combo between engineering and a BFA in MT, it could take five or six years. And even if this is possible, I’d want to talk to someone in the MT program and get their view on it. And even if it is possible, it doesn’t solve finding colleges because you will have trouble finding other schools with a BFA in MT combo with an Engineering degree and so your son will be forced to look into the other degree or combo options I have described in order to formulate a college list that will yield results.</p>
