Major: Music - Performance (This Major's Salary over time)
NEC was a horrible experience for me. I was a voice major and was shuffled around between teachers, told I wasn't good, and never once got to perform…all of this as one of the better singers in my class. The faculty are mostly washed-up performers who do not want to be teaching. Those that do really want to teach are often so elderly that you can't be sure they'll be there from day to day (my first teacher had a stroke four weeks into school…she was in her 90s). Not many opportunities are made available to undergrads. Do NOT attend NEC as an undergrad…you will be sorry you did!
