<p>I’ve seen posted that CMU is a Lottery School. What does that mean?</p>
<p>It usually implies that the school has such a low acceptance rate that the odds of getting in feel as long shot as the lottery. The acceptance rate for musical theater is about 2% approximately. </p>
<p>Not sure if your question is geared toward the musical theater degree program.</p>
<p>Yes it was geared toward the BFA in Musical Theatre program. Thank you for the reply. Thats what I thought it meant.</p>
