<p>Don’t let these stage moms bully you! Believe in yourself and you can do anything. My boyfriend went to Tisch and studied at Playwrights and he had to get huge loans and he’s still paying them off but he is a working actor and had the most fulfilling time at Tisch and that kind of training made him the actor he is today! He doesn’t regret a second of it and I don’t think you will either! Most people never have an opportunity to fulfill their dream and you have beaten the odds to get into a trully incredible conservatory program. I believe that if you really want it in your heart than you should do it! it’s a once in a lifetime opportunity and no a BA doesn’t cut it for most professional actors! Every actor has a different path but many of the actors that I audition against have BFA’s from Tisch and that really gives them a leg up! Be the best artist you can be…there are enough obstacles against an actor coming out fresh from school but you might as well enter the professional world from an acting school that people in the industry actually know and respect.</p>
<p>Good luck.
