<p>Parachuteboy - My D is going to be a senior next year and plans to apply for a BFA in acting. We have looked at a lot of schools. I wanted to mention as far as the AP’s go - even in the BFA, they are useful. Many schools will allow you to use the AP credit to replace on of the required curriculum courses, allowing you to take a different class in that college, or more electives in your major. So, for instance, if my D gets a 4 or a 5 on the AP Calc exam, she will have no math requirement at many of the schools and can opt to take any number of other classes in the theatre school or a traditional gen ed class. You will find them helpful at many schools, but be sure to ask each schools how they can be used.</p>
