Hi Shinester.
Thanks for your insight and encouragement.
I think you are right and finding a good composition teacher is really important.
It certainly helped you, and I think the reasons you suggested that this is important are
valid.
Thanks for the information about UMich. The fact that the academic requirements may be slightly less for music freshman ( 3.6 GPA rather than 3.9) is useful to know.
Thanks for the encouragement.
Best wishes to you in the Fall.
