Wow, are you getting ahead of yourself arwarw! As much as you’d like to, you cannot figure out the next 4 years of your kids life, it doesn’t work that way. There is absolutely no way to know what the process will be four years from now especially since they are redoing the MT program and the straight theatre programs to make them even more encompassing than they are currently. There is also a lot of debate as to the value of such showcases but that is too involved to discuss right now.

I think you’ve gotten a lot of good advice and information here especially from connections. You are an engineer, I understand that, and numbers and statistics are important to you but theatre does not work that way nor do kids going through 4 years of college. There are no guarantees with admission or beyond. Research, ask reasonable general questions about philosophy and treatments of the different schools, have your daughter figure out her best learning style and what she wants out of college and then join the crap shoot like everyone else. It all overwhelmingly works out in the end. Good luck!
