<p>^^ “The BA is more than half traditional college classes and the remaining classes in acting training.”</p>
<p>Great advice and questions above… but a BA is not ALWAYS more than 1/2 traditional college classes and the remaining classes in training. There are BA programs that are closer to BFA programs in terms of the ration of academic classwork to training class work. There are some BFAs that have much more rigorous academic requirements. Most auditioned programs will require a high level of training coursework… more than most non-auditioned programs. This can be a good starting point. Then look at the specific required and AVAILABLE course work at schools to see the possibilities.</p>
<p>There are many options for your D. Knowing a bit more about her background and experience, the part of the country in which you reside, her academics in HS, et… will help those here make suggestions.</p>
<p>Many parents do help their children with the logistics of scheduling, some researching, etc… but your D needs to take some of the responsibility and “drive the bus” … or at least navigate from the passengers seat! :-)</p>
<p>What are some of the schools currently on her list. Is the 3.0 weighted or un-weighted? Does it include grades in arts classes and other “soft subjects,” or mainly traditional academic subjects?</p>
