<p>Elon may be a good option. My only reservation is that in general, I might hesitate to study theater in a BA program where there is ALSO a BFA program (though Indiana is one exception I’d make). I think studying theater in a BA program where there is not ALSO a BFA, allows the BA students to not be “second fiddle”, to take any of the theater classes and to not compete for casting with the BA students. I feel that a BA theater kid may be more disappointed in a BA where there is a BFA program compared to where the BA theater program IS the program itself.</p>
<p>That is why for this particular boy who wants engineering, I’d look into schools like Tufts, Yale, Northwestern, Brown, Cornell, Dartmouth, U of Penn, WashU of St. Louis, and so on where he could do engineering and where there are also good theater opportunities. Of course, getting into these schools is very difficult.</p>
<p>Some others might be UVA, UC-Santa Barbara, U of Colorado, Lehigh, Vanderbilt, UC-Irvine, U of Delaware, Northeastern (Northeastern actually has a MT Minor).</p>
