I don’t know the rationale, except that it is possible to dual degree between SOM and LSA or COE, while it is presumably not possible to dual degree between COE and LSA, I suspect.

The Bmus and BFA degrees are also studio-style degrees, meaning its a very specific sequence with a lot of prereqs and reqs and and emphasis on “doing” – in other words, its not an academic degree compared with BA, but more like “practical” training in nature. If you were studying LSA music, which is more academic in nature and a BA, you could not dual degree in COE, for example.

However, remember that as a top music conservatory, only a fraction of the most talented auditioners get in. Eg. In music theatre after initial screening I think there was 700 auditions for 24 spots, which by gender, work out to 12 of each. So the odds for mt if you’re good enough to audition are a fraction of a percentage. (However, I don’t think mt students can dual degree in practice because their degree is already multi disciplined, but I may be wrong.)
