If your child spends hours practicing music each day, you may wonder: "is this actually helping with college admissions?"
From a strategic perspective, music can feel like a poor return on investment, especially if your child isn't planning to pursue it professionally.
And yet, every year I see a disproportionate number of musicians beat the odds and get admitted to the top schools like Harvard, Princeton, Stanford, and others.
In this episode, we explore why. I hope this helps you decide how much effort to put into music training at different periods of your child's development.
