rudysmom- the general reaction to NEC is that while the faculty and programs at NEC are top notch, they have a reputation for being less than generous when it comes to merit (talent) and need based aid and the overall facilities are long past the point of needing updating. These are not reasons to necessarily eliminate the school from a shortlist; it is well worth investigating, but may not be the right “fit” for everyone.

My son is strongly considering NEC for grad school, but even though they have one of the strongest viola faculties and chamber program, the aid and facility are still major concerns.
