William and Mary vs. University of Richmond For Business Administration

Denver and Miami (FL) both have top-notch music schools, which could be a plus if you’re at that level; both offer a music BA for double-majors in addition to the BFA. Richmond has strong performing arts too (plus there are more music opportunities available through cross-registration at VCUArts)… and they give some substantial music scholarships - half-tuition if I remember correctly - for which you have to commit to at least a music minor.

FWIW, Ohio State also has strong programs in both music and business, and the music school is quite double-major-friendly.

I agree that Wake Forest fits the pattern of schools that you seem to like. Tulane and Emory could also be worth considering as reaches. Farther north, maybe look at Boston College in addition to Babson and Bentley.

As far as your business major, if you don’t want to specialize in accounting, marketing, etc., I think your plan to lean toward analytics sounds smart. That would give you a very versatile skill set.

In terms of the PA LAC’s, in addition to Bucknell, you might want to look at Gettysburg, which has a well-regarded music conservatory and also has a Business, Organizations, and Management major. In addition to the BM, they offer a BA that’s more amenable to double-majoring.
