For what it's worth, musicians are, after national merit scholars and athletes, the most highly recruited group of high school students. A good tuba player (for example) will often be offered a pretty hefty scholarship, even if he/she is not a music major, simply because a school's musical organizations need talented musicians. And a good musician who plans to major in music will be fought over by several different schools.
