Major: Music - Performance (This Major's Salary over time)
I was admitted to Music Technology program (graduate level) at New York University in 2008, and graduated in 2010. First of all, NYU is an extreme money making institute. There are always some sort of administration fees involved no matter what you do. About music technology program, I simply think that it is not worth going for that much money. They offer so many different curriculum inside of the department, such as tonmeister, Scoring for Film and Multimedia, etc., These sound attractive, but the reality is that there are no faculty members who can guide students for their professional goals. The program is very unorganized, and they do not have right classes that should be taught. If you are serious about music technology, my advice is that you can study and master it yourself. I learned a lot from people I work with in New York and taught myself. Only positive part about Music technology program or NYU in general is the location. There are so much stuff you will learn from this city. Other than that, this program is not worth your hard working money.

questionReally appreciate the review. I'm a songwriting, who is hoping to learn production so I can have a better shot at a career in music. If you don't suggest Steinhardt, any tips? thanks
questionI also got an admission into NYU steinhardt's Music Technology and I am seriously considering the option of choosing it for my graduate studies. Can I get in touch with you for more information? I really need help.
