We have visited there and gotten information. I may be fuzzy, but my recollection is that it is not so hard to get into BFA if you have been doing everything you are asked to do, working hard, etc. during the freshman year. I think some students may choose the BA route because they do not want the added pressure of working quite so hard for the BFA (which requires a very full time commitment, as is true at most conservatory type schools). Also, some students choose the BA because it allows for a minor, for example, in business. We were not concerned about going there and not being ultimately accepted into the BFA program. It did not remind us of a cut system at other schools.
