Heather,

Congratulations on being accepted intoAPU! I am sure others will chime in,
but if I could have told my incoming freshmen what to have done better, I
would have told them to have studied their music theory and sight reading
more. That particular lack of knowledge will slow you down more than
anything, I think. As far as singing knowledge, sometimes teachers would
rather you not know a lot, so they can teach you "their" way. Sometimes
preconceived notions of how the voice is supposed to work can slow progress
with a teacher.

Good luck with your studies, and welcome to vocalist.
