<p>Welcome to CC. </p>
<p>First, you should examine the differences between a BFA and a BA degree. Tisch has a BFA degree. A BFA degree is appropriate for those who want to focus primarily on Acting and are committed to that as a field of study and potential career before enrolling. A BA is more appropriate to those who want to major in Theater but also explore other interests. For BA degrees, there typically is not a commitment to the major before enrolling (there are exceptions, such as BA by Audition schools). There are various threads on CC that explain the differences between such degree programs. Based on what you have shared, a BA is better suited to you, someone who has several interests and is not necessarily ready or desirous of putting 100% toward acting. I think you are still exploring what you want to do and a BA path will let you major in theater if you wish, but also to change your mind, if that happens. </p>
<p>Secondly, I would totally get rid of the notion of focusing just on Tisch, and even if you do pursue a theater/acting degree, explore numerous schools. Academically, your stats are low for Tisch. Artistically, Tisch is one of the most competitive BFA in Acting schools to get into. Typically, applicants will have been training and participating in acting and theater for many years before applying to Tisch (you must audition to get in and they accept a very small percentage). For now, you lack training and experience and are likely not competitive for admissions to a BFA program, though could get some serious training and be in productions within the next year as a start. </p>
<p>Read some threads on CC about some great BA schools for theater, and ones where your academic stats fall in the ballpark, as well.</p>
