High school worries, etc...

Hello, My name is Brett, and I have been studying clarinet for about five years now, three of which have been very serious. Right now I am in the eleventh grade. I am definately stuck on the idea of becoming a clarinet virtuoso and doing a lot of performances. The idea just really strikes my sense of something I truly want to do in life.

Anyway, the place I would really love to study that is at Eastman in New York. My problem is that I don't know if I could financially make it, but I don't know how to check out if I do or not. I do know that I have been the first ranking classmen in my class, so a valedictorian is very possible for me. In addition to that, I have the most amazing clarinet teacher, and I believe if I can continue to study as hard as I am now with her, I may be able to get a very good scholarship there. The last student she sent there earned a one hundred percent scholarship, but I heard that she still had to pay a very large amount of money. Fortunately for her, though, she attends a school for the wealthier (not disgustingly wealthy, but it demands a lot of pay, I wouldn't have enough to go to that school even though it is public), and her family has enough to support her through it.

Very vague on everything, I know, but any help is appreciated.
