I’m staying out of the financial nagging here and answering your intended question. I don’t know much about the other two, but I do know that DePaul’s program is quite esteemed. They will set you up with strong contacts in the industry. There are several quality agencies in the city if you choose to stay. Additionally, DePaul is connected with Cinespace, so you will have opportunities to develop a film reel if you choose to focus on film (though there are loads of theatres in town if you prefer stage). Although their degree is not MT, their music department is top notch, so you will easliy get excellent vocal training there. Locally, there are several regional theatres, and a few of those even post their casting calls publicly, so even if you don’t have an agent, you may be able to audition while you’re in school (I know some schools don’t allow you to audition while in college, but I think DePaul might allow you to do so.). Hope that helps!
