Berklee College of Music Top Questions

Before moving to Boston, MA and attending Berklee College of Music, I wish I would have familiarized myself with the area more in order to find cheaper housing. Also, I would have attempted to study some of the core music material on my own in order to place out of the classes. Berklee offers many opportunities for students to prove their knowledge of the course material by taking a placeout test. Doing this will reduce the amount of money used pay for school, by reducing the number of classes left to take.
