UMBC in Maryland is a great STEM school. Too many wonderful things to list here, but look them up (and google their President, Freeman Hrabowski, who is an amazing man). It’s not a musical theatre program, but does have a BFA in Acting that participates in KCACTF and allows students to workshop and perform in new works. My daughter double majored in French and Acting, which I realize is not as rigorous as Science and Acting, but her departments were both supportive and somewhat flexible when upper level classes were limited for
scheduling.
