College Guide for Performing Arts Majors 2008: Real-World Admission Guide for All Dance, Music, and Theater Majors (Performing Arts Major's College Guide) [Paperback] Review

My son asked me to buy this, he wants to be a music performance major.Helpful features in this book: the nuts & bolts of auditions, how to communicate with the college, knowing your teacher before you decide on a college, questions to ask on a college visit, 12 pages of universities/colleges that offer every imaginable music major/concentration, and facts concerning 500 music schools (number of full & part-time faculty, programs of study).My big problem with this book: out of 500 conservatories/colleges/universities listed for music, two excellent universities were left out:Yale University in Connecticut and The Eastman School of Music (University of Rochester) in New York.Both of these are listed as having excellent music programs in the Fiske Guide (which only lists 12 conservatories, 17 universities and 17 colleges in the nation).It appears that the author, the former Julliard admissions director (New York), did not want to list their competition?
