So, you think you want to study music/dance/theatre/art in college?

Please join college-bound student performing and visual artists and their families for an evening of frank conversation with ArtsBridge CEO, Halley Shefler and Student Artists ConnectEd founder, Jennifer Boudrye.
We'll be talking about how to find a conservatory/college program that is right for you, your desire to pursue your talents professionally, combining your passion with other interests or continuing an interest "on the side" while you focus on a non-arts degree and much more.
As the mom of… Show more a high school junior son intending to pursue vocal performance, Student Artists ConnectEd's creator, Jennifer Boudrye, has found Halley Shefler's no-nonsense approach invaluable. Jennifer's daughters made it to and through college, but the arts path is a whole new game.
Halley Shefler previously served as Dean of Admissions for The Boston Conservatory, Director of Admissions for Boston University’s College of Fine Arts School of Music, and Director of Academic Affairs for the Longy School of Music. Halley has experienced the college process both as an admissions officer and as a parent. Her older son received a Bachelor of Music degree in Oboe Performance at the New England Conservatory and Master of Music degree in Orchestral Conducting at Indiana University. Her younger son currently attends Franklin & Marshall College.
