I'm also looking into any music schools in Chicago. I live in Wisconsin and staying closer to my family would be nice. Basically I want to get a double-degree, one in recording (so I can work in a studio during the day), and one in guitar performance (for session playing/gigging). Basically I want it so that even if my music plans fail, that I'll still have a career working in the studio, doing session work, etc. I have $5000 saved up right now that I was previously considering for a custom guitar, but now it's my college fund. I make about $5000 per year, so by the end of high school I'll have 10K-11K saved up, plus my parents are helping out with funding a bit, now that they support me in my life choice.
