If you're going to college after high school, we highly recommend that you continue to play your instrument and stay involved in music. There are tons of ways to continue participating in music after high school, even while pursuing another career!
Becoming a life-long musician has social, physical, and mental benefits that few other activities can offer. Think about it - when you go off to college, you'll most likely be surrounded by new people. But walk into a band room, and you instantly meet dozens of people who all have something in common with you: music.
Click on the links below to learn more about different colleges and universities nearby that offer degrees in music, opportunities for non-music majors, and even scholarships.
And as always, if you'd like more information, just talk to Ms. Shuman!
