Non-conservatory training
(Apologies for the re-post here...but no one ever reads the College Cellists board and I want answers!)I guess the future is NOW. I never thought I'd be doing this for real, but my serious college search is starting. I realized that other than Indiana and Northwestern, I don't know of any non-conservatory colleges with a strong music program. I want to ultimately go to a conservatory, but perhaps not as an undergraduate. What schools have good progams/cello teachers?

1st and foremost, find a teacher you want to study with. Universities with well-reputed music schools that come to mind include Michigan, Minnesota, USC, plus there must be lots in the east.

Re: Non-conservatory training
Definitely check out Ithaca College -- www.ithaca.edu , I'm pretty sure.
Anyway, it's a liberal arts college with a very strong music school. It started out as a conservatory, actually, and then expanded into a college. Sorry, we haven't got a cello web page up, but it's in the works, slowely. Anyway, you get a very good education here, and you work very hard. We have a strong orchestra, a good atmosphere and a truly great teacher. It's what they call a "teaching college"-- emphasis on hiring good full-time teachers who want to teach.
Anyway, I'll stop plugging now, and if you want me to say more you can always email me.

ok.... time to plug Lawrence agian :-) It is a very strong academic school which also happens to have a very good conservatory. The orchestra has an AMAZING (no... really, its not an oxymoron :-))conductor.... Ms. Anthony is a great cellist and a wonderfull teacher, and you would find the cello studio to be very friendly and easy to get along with. I'll stop now, but you can e-mail me at : cello_man@yahoo.com if you wish.
