EFF 'em

January 19, 2007

Mr. ___________

Dear ___________:

After careful review by the Admissions Committee, I regret to inform you that your application for study at the Yale School of Music for the 2007–2008 academic year has not been approved.

Each year the school receives applications from an extraordinarily able group of people and this year was no exception. The Yale School of Music’s fixed enrollment obliges the faculty to deny admission to a high percentage of the qualified applicants who apply.

Should you have any questions concerning this decision, please contact the Office of Admissions at (203) 432-4155 or GradMusic.Admissions@yale.edu.

Thank you for your interest in pursuing advanced studies at Yale. You have our best wishes for future success.

Sincerely,

Robert Blocker
The Henry and Lucy Moses
Dean of Music

Decisions, Decisions (updated 1/13/07)

I've almost narrowed my grad school choices down (U of Michigan, Yale, Peabody Conservatory [at Johns Hopkins], Boston U) and I'm trying to decide between three others (pick 1) :

• DePaul U (Chicago)
• Roosevelt U (Chicago)
• U of British Columbia (that's right, it's in Canadia)

I have to turn in the apps for Boston and U of BC pretty soon, especially U of BC because auditions are at the end of this month.

Until then, I'm working on, in no particular order of importance, my senior recital rep, cleaning my room, finishing up the grad apps.

But I keep getting distracted by yourtvlinks.com and movieforumz.com

Oh to be distracted...
