I thought the deadline for committing to Fordham was May 1. So I dont know what is going on with queen. Perhaps some special arrangement.

I am not the person to ask for anything really LC or Theatre related. I know kids at RH do lots of theatre but its not a major, just an avocation. And they have fun.

Acting careers are a tough road. Really tough. Depends on the talent and the inspiration and drive…willing to wait tables and bartend to make ends meet until the call for real work comes in. Even kids at conservatories for theatre face this problem, including USC and UCLA.

Nothing wrong with Lewis and Clark but its a small school in a part of the country that is very different from New York.

I also wouldnt put admissions as the folks who know a lot about transfering majors as they dont have any control over that, its the department heads, the Dean of Students, and of course any auditions you do. Admissions employs people to answer phones…just saying.

at the end of the day, this is your decision and its the first big adult decision in life you will make. Its not easy. But we cant do it for you.

My view is get a good education to fall back on in case acting/theatre doesnt work out, regardless of whether its our major or not. Be wary of the starving artist syndrome.
