Thank you! I didn’t realize this was the old BA program renamed and that makes a lot more sense now. My son is looking for a BA program or very flexible BFA program that involves a broad array of theater areas and doesn’t have an intense focus on performance. He liked the BFA nonperformance track at Emerson because it cut out that actor training core. He wants to pursue other things like writing for television, comedy, directing, etc. He likes the comedic performance BFA or minor at Emerson. He also likes the look of the Film & Television program at Fordham. He’s a little bit all over the place right now to be honest, which is why I think a BA program would be best for him since he’s still figuring it out. The problem with the BA programs that he likes (like Northwestern) is that they tend to be more competitive academically and, although he does have a very high gpa, his ACT score is a 27 (which he’s taking again trying to get up).
