  > (Though yes, tuition is a major barrier at > 18k/year.) I don't know where you're getting that. Hardly any 4-year college is that inexpensive nowadays. Granted, nearly all who need it are able to acquire a significant amount of financial aid. This source: http://www.collegedata.com/cs/data/college/college_pg03_tmpl.jhtml?schoolId=134 http://www.collegedata.com/cs/data/college/college_pg03_tmpl... lists cost of attendance for Berklee to be $57,229.

    It's a little off-topic, but your chances of getting out from under $100k of debt as a musician are not that good. That's a big barrier for a lot of people.

    For a private conservatory, that may be standard. But among all educational institutions, that exorbitant. Most people do not go to private, liberal arts colleges. They go to state schools or community college.

  Tuition is 36k, and their estimated cost of attendance is 63k, on par with, if not higher than, the estimated cost of attendance at Harvard University and most other top private universities. Ouch. http://www.berklee.edu/financial-aid/cost-of-attendance.html http://www.berklee.edu/financial-aid/cost-of-attendance.html http://www.admissions.college.harvard.edu/financial_aid/cost.html http://www.admissions.college.harvard.edu/financial_aid/cost...
