1) Do you like the instructor? You will probably be spending 4 years with him or her.
2) Is the instructor well recognized by their peers? You initial auditions/selections are influenced by your teacher. Even when they say it doesn't.
3) What is your cost? Room & board & travel home probably isn't included in your scholarship. Maybe.
4) I see you saying all of them want you. Don't let that go to your head too much. You will probably be a little fish in a big pond. You'll grow up, but talk to a few students to see what kind of pond it is. You wouldn't think so, but there's sometimes sharks in ponds. Or really big carnivorous fish, anyway. The music business isn't especially nice.
5) Do they have decent scholastics along with the music department> My eldest son graduated from CIM; Case Western provided the academics, and they weren't all that easy on the music students.
