Is anyone here familiar with Berklee College of Music, especially its online courses and undergraduate degree programs? I hear that Berklee is considered to be a top tier music school in the US.

DD is interested in enrolling in its degree program. She wants to skip A-Levels/Poly and go straight into getting a Bachelor of Arts. She is eyeing music composition rather than music performance. There is a degree for Music Composition for Film and TV that she is eyeing.

Any feedback will be appreciated. Thanks.

Don’t know much about it, but I saw this article in CNA recently about this Singaporean doing commercial composing. Found it extremely interesting (I once met a young adult in her 20s whose job was composing jingles for ads, which was the first time I’d heard of such a profession).

It’s mentioned in the article that he’s a graduate of Berklee:

Thank you. I saw that article. I am actually quite impressed you remembered reading that one word from such a long article.


I think he attended Berklee as a student at its Boston campus.

Guess not many people here are familiar with Berklee. Then again, most parents here will :faint: if their kid says he or she wants to do music at university.

It can be quite scary when the children wants to travel the path less trodden. :nailbite:
