A bunch of years ago (more years the older I get), I attended Music School.

At the time, it seemed like the Only Option.

I took out loans to help pay (though I'm grateful that the school supported me with some scholarship - probably not because of my ability but more likely because I made a personal appeal to the jazz dept director)...

...and I had a great experience. The teachers, the ensembles, the hang.

But now, looking back, with an adult's perspective on the value of almost $100,000 for two years (maybe $75 out of pocket), I wonder - could I have gotten the same education for way less?

Disclaimer - I realize I'm a guy with drum courses for sale ([ Ссылка ]), questioning the value of music college, but I don't consider it a conflict of interest, because my courses don't claim to substitute for a formal music education. Also, they're extremely affordable comparatively. I think when the pricetag is approaching six figures, we have to ask the harder questions.

Hope you enjoy!
