| Frenchlaw, I don't know where your son has applied to college but many many talented students seek the BA path. There is also the option of eventually doing an MFA down the line. I know some talented students who either got into BFAs or had the talent to get in them but preferred a BA. They go to excellent schools with very good theater departments. A BA isn't going to be like a BFA, but can still be a very strong theater department and a student can still get deeply involved in theater. They simply will have a greater percentage of liberal arts vs. theater credits. Good luck to your son and let us know how he makes out. |
