Colleges

Today, my dad and I went to visit UMD. I thought it was going to be a waste of my time since I had not heard many good things about their music program. When we got to the campus, Kelsey Boran gave us the "grand" tour. The campus is nice, but there were a lot of people there. I'm not sure if I want to go to that big of a school or not. After the tour, my dad and I met with Rachel Inselman who is the head vocal performance coach/teacher. She went to the Cleveland Institute of Music for her education, a school I was looking in to. She was really nice and personable. I feel I could get along with her really well. She knew what she was talking about and told me that their choir wasn't one of the greatest, but since that's not my focus that's OK. Overall, I think this school is number 3 or 4 on my list. But, first things first, I need to be accepted.
