LeftofPisa, thanks for your response! I got back from my day at Muhlenberg a couple hours ago, and, may I just say, WOW!!! I honestly can’t express how much more I love the school after seeing it. The interview was very comfortable and informative, and I think the interviewer was impressed with me (I hope!), the tour was wonderful and interesting, Charles Richter was fantastic, and the acting class blew me completely away!! I didn’t find anything that I was nervous about, everyone seemed incredibly welcoming and polite, and the buildings/campus are/is just GORGEOUS! I can’t gush more about it, so I’ll shut up now.
I think it’s pretty much decided that I’m going there should I be accepted, and early decision is more and more likely with us. My mom and I have already discussed flying me out from WI in the fall to audition for the theatre program in person. I just KNEW as soon as we entered the campus that I should go here.
I especially could go on and on about the class I sat in on - it was a wonderful thing to watch, and I learned so much just being a spectator.

On a side note, my mom and I were amused at the amount of double-takes we got every time I said “I’m from Wisconsin.”

But anyway, I’m in love. :D
