| The kind of information or opinions you seek are best gotten from current students, parents of students, or alumni. The next best source, though not as good, would be opinions of those who have visited or auditioned at the schools. Anyone else can only share factual information that can be gotten from websites and brochures but really are not able to give significant opinions with much to back them up. NYTheaterMom's child is not a student at these schools, nor do I believe she applied to them, so she was offering factual differences but left others who would be more in the know with first hand experiences to profer opinions. Hopefully, you can find some students or parents of students enrolled in these schools to speak to in order to get first hand opinions. Hopefully some are on this forum. Also, you can call the schools and ask if there are current students who can email or talk to your student. Visiting and meeting with those in the programs is also very beneficial.
Also, to clear up any confusion, Theatermom didn't post. NYTheaterMom did. Theatermom has a D who is a second year MT student at University of Michigan. NYTheaterMom has a D who was an applicant this year to BFA programs. |
