We are sorry to lose you. I did forget that you were a waitlist admission.
You will always be welcome at Fordham I am certain.
Theater and dramatic arts are a very tough career choice because its so competitive. Nothing wrong with dreams. Nothing wrong with making your best efforts. But the world of professional artists often depends on agents and other factors to get big breaks in the business. This is true for musicians and singing artists as well.
We werent trying to scare you off, but instead give you the true picture of that career choice. On the other hand, being a theater major or minor isnt limited to acting as a profession. Any liberal arts degree is very pliable and applicable in many career situations.

New York is a competitive city. Its fabulous, but its also very serious and hyperactive. Its an adjustment for anyone coming from another part of the country. However, New York also boasts the highest number of out of state students in the country. Tens of thousands of them. It is transforming for most of them. Including my kid, who is a Fordham Phi Beta Kappa graduate, has a Masters Degree now and is very likely returning to New York early next year because she is going to marry her Fordham sweetheart.

We all wish you the very best in your college choice and your career, regardless where that will be.

God bless.
