Thanks, that’s good to know. Most programs you have to stay with your class. I assumed since Tisch assigned you to Studios, everyone would be taking a prescribed curriculum of performance classes as a group and therefore would be unable to graduate early. I think that’s how it is at most places like CMU, Michigan, CCM, etc., and that is why they make transfers stay the entire 4 years. Everything is sequenced or taught together, making it impossible to do the theatre curriculum in less than 4 years even if you have already completed the gen eds.
Tisch would be a great option for someone with lots of credit looking to finish a bit early. And doing so, would save some money making the cost more in line with some other schools.
