<p>Fordham is indeed a BA program and since it was on your list to begin with, I would hope that you would look further into the program and not reject it simply because it is not a BFA. You would most certainly be able to minor or even double major with careful academic planning in English lit. My S is in his 2nd year and is a Performance/Playwriting major with a strong interest in English lit as well…he at one point even considered that as his 2nd major. </p>
<p>While there certainly are writing assignments, the Performance major at Fordham is primarily practical in training with required vocal and movement labs in addition to the acting classes. Fordham does have a large core curriculum though so not only would you be taking classes in Theatre and English lit but you would be taking a foreign language and classes in Philosophy, Theology and other subjects as well. And while my S loves that about Fordham (minus the math/science requirement, of course) that is definitely not for everybody. </p>
<p>I have written a number of posts on Fordham and from what I gather, I am the only person here with someone in the program. Feel free to PM me if you have any questions about the program or life at Lincoln Center.</p>
<p>BTW, you asked about the specific programs on your list but I would hope that your final list also included some non audition/financial safety options! Good luck! :)</p>
