I initially posted this in the Arts majors board, but had no response; I thought I’d try again here since this board seems to have more traffic.

My daughter wants to major in theatre, perhaps heading towards a career as a stage manager, although she enjoys all aspects of theatre and would like the chance to do some acting as well while in college. She begins her senior year next month, with a B+ GPA, 1900 SAT, newspaper editor, and lots of theatre activity (including “Best Thespian” award the last two years). She leans towards going to college in CA, and likes Scripps, Occidental, Chapman, LMU, Santa Clara, and Whittier. UCSB was on the bigger side although she liked that too. She was also impressed with Fullerton, but would prefer more of a residential campus. Any thoughts or suggestions? Thanks.
