<p>So…I am the mom of a sophomore BFA theatre student who took a similar stand about homework. It absolutely did affect him in his choice of schools. I felt strongly that he had shown me who he was in high school…a very talented actor/singer/dancer who hates homework. He is attending a wonderful program and is working his tail off but still hates homework so I am glad he did not apply to more academically challenging schools. 25 is a lot of schools to audition for…I would think about paring it down. That is a ton of travel and auditions.</p>
