So many factors involved. I'm in agreement with all that's said about but you need to consider your other double major because that's probably what you will make your living at. When I taught at Peabody, up until about 7 years ago, part of the Johns Hopkins University, I usually had at least one double major. Those that I've kept in touch with all make their living from their other majors. Some still play locally where they live and at least kept up their playing. One of mine works for CNN and often appears on specials, and she's gives chamber music concerts on occasion. My point being, you need to really consider your other major. I know to be accepted as a double major at Peabody-Hopkins you have to be accepted at both schools for each major and Peabody required you to get one of the top auditions ratings knowing how difficult it is to do both well. When I taught at Towson University it was easier to double major because you only had to be accepted into the university on one major and than take the necessary courses and declare a double major. Check out the requirements for each school your interested in.
