Northeastern 35 months ago Jessi... Best Answer Belmont is pretty easy to get into, as long as your SAT score was decent. The housing at Belmont is interesting. I would def. live on campus until you get used to the city and area. It's a lot of fun, but a lot at once. Nearly everyone in town has got something to display. Make sure you don't lose sight of what you got. The scene is awesome. Cafe Coco and Taste of Tokyo are two places you've gotta go to if you visit the ville. Good luck with your applications!

Best Answer Yes, I think your chances are excellent to get into Belmont. If you really like the school, there is nothing wrong with doing early decision, it gives "a plan" and takes away the doubt and worry you might feel later on. I did and I was glad. See all 3 answers

Best Answer sweet..i am too. i just visited last friday! the campus is amazing! very very nice. i come from a little town and the campus is not too small but not too big either. the area is nice and music row is adjacent to the school. the music business major sounds nice ( i'm interested in audio engineering tech) you can either focus on production or business. its definatly worth it if it something you seriously want to do. there are tons of things to do. belmont is less than 10 minutes from down town. there is a nice (18 and up) club downtown (grahm central station), lots of stores, coyote ugly..there will definatly be something to do. well i hope this helped.
