Yes, I know everything about the scholarships but the maximum covers the tuition fees. And there are another 10000$ per year for living. Full tuition scholarship get no more than 5% of the students. So having in mind that the international students are around 35% of the students the basic calculations show that the remaining 30% of the students pay about 15000-20000$/year which is SICK. I wonder how they do that, especialy the ones that are from the Eastern European countries

I agree with you that the pro attitude is the most important. I am far from giving up just because I cant get a music education. The music schools, here in Bulgaria are two and I've heard many people say that they suck-- I heard that the education there hasn't changed since totalitarian times
