CMU combination majors

Anyone have any knowledge of the BHA/BSA programs at CM? I know they are designed to be interdisciplinary but how about a bio/theater combo? Their site makes it sound like you can combine anything but that sounds just a little too loose....kind of a marketing strategy.

Someone asked that at our audition. We were told that major would not be possible as it's an audition program, and they want a certain amount of people so they can make each person the best they can be, so if they opened up the courses to everyone, it wouldn't work. It's like Gallatin at NYU. No way could you do a true MT major through Gallatin, even though the school says that's the "make your own major" school.

I'm a little familiar with it as I am working with someone this year who applied to it, but she is not seeking to major in theater. One of her areas is in the performing arts and does involve an audition. You have to get into both programs and the interdisciplinary BHA/BSA. Not easy.

I doubt you can do it with the BFA in Drama though.
