Help! Rising Sophomore Looking for BFA Acting Programs

<p>I do also know actors with BFA acting degrees who do choose to go on and pursue MFAs in Acting. As an actor you are constantly training and growing. Some choose to do this in the context of an MFA program. I also know actors who are graduates of BA programs who are very successful who never pursue an MFA degree.</p>

<p>I think the fact that there is no one route to a career is one of the best worst things about pursing this path. Everyone has to figure out what is best for them at each particular stage of their development. You do not have to have all of the answers now. This is a great time to do the research that you are doing to gather more information.</p>

<p>Most of the MFA Directing students I have known have been out of school for at least 3 or 4 years before being admitted to MFA Directing programs… many longer (I was out working for 6 years before going back… and I was the youngest in my program). Not that some do not go earlier. It is just less likely.</p>
