This thread speaks to me as I have a junior next year (D) with 6 years already in theater including regional and community credits in a competitive market. Her grades are about a 3.3 and her PSATs were average. Her plan is to do one professional show in the early fall next year and then focus on grades to 3.4/5 and getting her SAT scores in the 1700 range. She is very lucky and has about $80K in an educational trust but she really needs to spend about $20K a year and get the rest paid for. I think the LAC with large endowment and good theater program is the way to go but she wants to major in english/history and minor or double major in theater, preferably musical theater. We live in the PNW and are looking at schools in SF, LA, NY, Chicago and Seattle. We have made a wonderful list from this thread already but would appreciate something we might be missing.
Our list so far:
Cal Lutheran
Cal State-Fullerton, Northridge
Whittier
Loyola Marymount
SF State
Adlephi
Bard
Montclair State University
Knox College
Northwestern (stretch and unlikely with her stats)
