conservatives??
Dont you mean conservatories?
AND, it depends on which one you plan on going to, in which country.  You are from Chicago, but how am I supposed to know you arent going to France to study?

Be specific! and maybe Bernhard can help you out!

I suggest contacting teachers at those schools. They could answer your questions better than anyone here. You may run into the issue of a school having several piano teachers  at a school and all of them using a different approach for technique. This will depend on how much freedom the teacher has. I guess some schools would require that certain things be taught, but others may give teachers a lot of freedom to choose what and how they teach.
