The reason I am at Bard now is because of its dual degree program. I am now able to get into computer science while continuing my passion of orchestral, chamber, and solo playing. The icing on the cake is the high level of dedication from all the teachers and faculty!

I am a freshman student studying the violin at Bard Conservatory. Even though the semester has not formally started, I could feel the friendliness of faculty members and current students. ^^
Besides the unparalleled faculty, Bard Conservatory features the BM/BA 5-year dual degree program; which is that all undergraduate students could major in another academic field while pursuing their careers as musicians.
