Hello all!
I'm new to the forum, but I've been following this thread for a bit, as I have also been out there making the rounds on the application/interview circuit this semester.
I applied to PhD programs in music theory, and I got into four schools. Of these four, I've narrowed it down to University of Western Ontario and University of Massachusetts Amherst. At this point though, I'm having trouble deciding, so I thought I'd ask everybody if they know or have heard anything about the reputation of either of these programs? Also, I'm just a little scared of moving to Canada (I live in the states, and I'm told its not that different, but still...I'm hesitant). Any thoughts on making that transition?
