<p>*Oops, I meant the adviser that you will be asigned to once you get to college-they will know a lot more than your HS adviser now does haha. He/She should know exactly which type of degree is more attractive to employers.</p>
<p>Something that can help make your decision is what other major/minor would you want to add to your course load? (The thought behind this idea is that it would be easier to get 2 BA degrees or 2 BFA degrees than 1 BA and 1 BFA).</p>
<p>Lastly, a lot of “artsy” majors are designed to be what I call “second majors.” This means that the course load is smaller than other demanding majors like nursing/engineering-so it is easier to double major because less credit hours are required for the degree. (The English program at my school is about 36 credit hours this is not very many courses compared to other majors (The theatre is 45)). In other words, it should be possible for you to get another major or minor (Education can be a minor) to help make you AND your parents happy.</p>
<p>Your college, not HS, adviser would also be able to give you advice about what majors/minors would go well with a Theatre degree.</p>
<p>Best of luck-and sorry for the earlier confusion.</p>
