As a current music major who made a decision NOT to go to berklee (a decision I am VERY happy with btw), the biggest thing to take into account are your goals. You need to decide what it is you want and how it is you want to get there. The reason most people will just end up going nowhere fast with an education/carreer in music is because they lack any realistic goals or expectations of what to expect out of a life in music and end up with a very rude awakening. You also need to consider whether or not you really want to do music as a career...as I really wouldn't suggest going to school for a hobby. You might be just as happy making a living in something else while continuing to do music on the side, and there's nothing wrong with that either. Unfortunately, I've seen too many people who realize that a little later than they would've liked.
If/when you do decide you definitely want to go to school for music, as yourself "why berklee?" and DO NOT limit your choices.
