I received a Masters in Music-Conducting from Messiah University in Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania. It's a great school. I did the "normal" fall/spring semesters online, via Canvas, and there some summer intensives, pedagogy classes and a conductor's symposium. I have ZERO regrets and nothing but nice things to say about the program.

With that being said, they just started a MME program last fall. I don't know much about it, but I can tell you, if it's as good as their conducting program, which it probably is, you're in good hands.

As far as tuition is concerned, its grad school, it's gonna be costly.

Just google "Messiah University music" and it should take you to their music homepage.

I hope this helps.
