Why I Dropped Out of Berklee College of Music + My Audition Experience

Just because you change your mind it doesnt make you a failure 🔥🔥

I loved this!!!! Your openness and honesty here was powerful. i’m so glad you’re doing what’s right for you. 💓💓💓💓💓💓💓

MEERA! This was so nice. Itss gonna be great to have you back 🥰

I love how you view things, respect👌🏽👌🏽 Thank you for sharing, you've really opened up my eyes to these kind of things

my current college suits me waaay better than my last!! glad to know someone else went through something similar😊

This just randomly popped up on my feed lol, but I wish our paths had crossed at Berklee last year!! I’m a FS and Comp major. :) Glad you are finding your path in life, though, and good luck with your musical journey! :D

Thank you for this, I’ll be a senior in 2 months and Berkeley has been my dream school for the past year but now that I’m researching more I’m seeing more negative things about it and now I’m sort of loosing myself but your video has helped

So glad to hear your take on it, happy you went with your gut! College is wacky lol

I'm applying for Berklee Soon ,but I'm sure that going to Berklee is not gonna make things easier. Because you are damn sure that the outcome of you going to berklee will be John Mayer or Charlie Puth . Its just it gets u closer to your dream and its all on you how unique and different you are , Coming for talent Many have Talent but they aren't unique so yeah . But girl your Decision made you happy than duh , you realised Berklee isn't for you ✨

North Carolina! Woohoo! My 🏡 state! As for Berklee. I've been accepted there, twice, but financing... I'm glad that you were able to find your path. I am hoping that Berklee will be possibility for me some day. Be blessed, and I wish for you the very best of luck with your academic career, and beyond! 💐

My daughter took the summer week program when she was 15 back in 2017. She called me a few days later. She said... "OMG Dad!, Thank you! I love this school and all the things I'm learning, I even wrote a song with one of the seniors!." Later when she came home we talked about it. I asked her... " so do you think this school will be good for you?" She said "YES!" We planned for it and now it's her first Fall semester at Berklee C/O 2025. She says it's really great. I hope you find your path in music and it all works out the way you would like it to. Thanks for sharing your experience. Have great day!

I really like this video! you must have natural talent:) I want to pursue some kind of music degree and I'm going to apply to Berklee just to see what happens, I have no expectations but I'm interested to see if I have what it takes lmao

Great video. I fully respect your decision. I went to Berklee in the late 90's and graduated in 2002 when it was much, much cheaper. I felt very similar as you when moving to Boston. I didn't know a soul in that big town and was very close to calling it quits the first month I was there. Although most musicians can get educated by YouTube, etc., my personal take away from Berklee was the connections I made (which led to my career in music). Good luck at NC State!

This video was insightful! It’s sad how expensive it is

You are a beautiful soul. You are an inspiration as well. I really want to go to Berkeley but I lack the confidence, the money and knowledge. You have clearly touched every part of my confusion in this video. Though things definitely would have changed a lot with Berkeley since you made this video, I am gonna work on myself and push through it all. Hope to meet you one day. Thanks. Emmanuel John.

2004 Broke Berklee Grad Here 😂 Inspirational video, thanks for sharing your story. Was a rough 4 years back then too but the location turned into Disneyland compared to my years. Let’s Collaborate when you get to NYC!

such a genuine soul

Babe you should have at least 10k subs already, great vlogzzzzzz

Berklee was and still is my dream university. as an international student, i was shocked when i got my acceptance letter! Unfortunately, it was too expensive for me. EDIT: i am now doing Online Berklee!!!

thanks for your video XD I am planning to go there but I have trouble with improv. Can I ask how great did you play during the improv part?
