I agree if you ONLY want a BFA, then the ones where you audition into a BFA track after a year or two would be too risky. However, there really is no guarantee either that if you want to get into a BFA program as a freshman, that you will. So, if you are aiming for a BFA but don’t get into one, then perhaps a BA that has the possibility of a BFA later down the line in the program might be chosen over a strictly BA safety school.

Like EmsDad’s daughter, my D ONLY wanted a BFA in MT program and so that was that. I have had advisees add schools like Hofstra (as one example) to a list of BFA schools as their safety (if it is indeed an academic safety for them and it is not for all people). By the way, Hofstra also has a MT Minor and not all BA in Theater schools offer that.
