<p>theatrenerd- most of your post is completely irrelevant and is basically just talking about yourself. your friend should really look at bfa programs and see if they really make a difference for her. the way our program is set out, is so you have more classes without having to actually pay per credit hour like other programs. we have dance 5 days a week and a one hour voice lesson per week, most schools do not have this and if they do it fills up their schedule quite a bit. also, most people going to school here do not feel distracted because we already know that this is the life we will be living so why not start now and build those contacts and be used to the city before the rest of your graduating class from other schools gets here. I’m not saying that your choice is bad, because I don’t think that at all. But your post really belongs somewhere else…maybe on the Hartt section so you can brag about something you actually know about.</p>
