| Penn State is not a good example for this argument/debate, as it's MT program is one of the most selective out there, with about a 3.6% acceptance rate. That's even more selective than Boston Conservatory's acceptance rate!
That said, I don't believe that even those percentages tell us that much about the quality of a BFA program. The only thing that counts is that young performers with talent and drive get the very best training they can, which I happen to believe is available at a number of college/university/programs, including Boston Conservatory. Lucky for the young people that there are so many great programs out there. |
