In her early teens, Flack so excelled at classical piano that Howard University awarded her a full music scholarship. She matriculated at Howard at the age of 15, making her one of the youngest students ever to enroll there. She eventually changed her major from piano to voice, and became an assistant conductor of the university choir. Her direction of a production of Aida received a standing ovation from the Howard faculty.
Flack became the first black student teacher at an all-white school near Chevy Chase, Maryland. She graduated from Howard at 19 and began graduate studies in music, but the sudden death of her father forced her to take a job teaching music and English for $2800 a year in Farmville North Carolina.
