I agree with mtdog-- read through the threads here – also go through the individual school threads, and look at the websites for schools there and on the big list posted on the faq link.

As far as number of schools to apply to I think that depends – it does seem that most apply to at least 8 and try to balance their list with at least one school (that is an academic and financial safety) that has a non-auditioned musical theatre (or theatre program with strong MT opportunities).

CMU and Michigan are two of the most competitive MT schools in terms of admissions. They are terrific programs, but your S will want to round out his list.

Best of luck! :)
