<p>Thank you for all your replies!</p>
<p>Octaviar unfortunately I don’t think that would help because the only time I visited NY was during the polar vortex and I don’t think that’s an accurate representation of NY; and I’ve never been to LA. I can tell you though that I l would love a clean, peaceful environment (in the dorms yet one where I’ll constantly be with my friends, a challenging work environment in the conservatory, and people just smiling all the time coupled with trees, green grass, but cold enough to wear sweaters.</p>
<p>NJTheatreMOM, does it really seem that way? I think I’m split 50/50 between USC and Tisch at this point, considering they are the best (apart from Juilliard) drama programs the world can offer. </p>
<p>I just recieved my USC package in the mail today, and boy is it making the decision more difficult.
At this point, the two things drawing me towards Tisch is the possibility to double major (I need psychology as a back-up plan) and it’s esteemed training. USC on the other hand has a more selective program a nice campus, weather, closer to Hollywood (I wouldn’t mind doing theatre or films but I’ve seen way more films than plays and there’s something that’s always attracted me to them), and I’ve got a couple of friends there.</p>
<p>5boys from your post I’ve gathered that essentially I’d have to look for an MFA unless I’m very good. And in that case I should not bother with BFAs and go for a well rounded education?</p>
<p>YardleySisa if you were looking for a jumpastart into the professional world, which Tufts wouldn’t offer, and Tisch does not come highly recommended, would you say that I should pick USC?</p>
<p>Since the past two years when people have asked me what I want to do for further studies, and I’ve always replied - “I want to go to Tisch!”. I just want to make sure I don’t regret losing something that I had within my reach.</p>
<p>Man this is difficult.</p>
