I have this option too but would be very hesitant. Sure, the possibility of reauditioning exists but if that’s your hope and reason for attending I think most would agree that the chances are pretty slim. Also, telling us to get more training and try again is a little insulting when these programs take so few people. It’s not like 950 students need more training and, if so,will they even provide it. Most of the BA"s in schools that offer BFA or not performance based. They are more like tech programs aren’t they? They say you can audition for shows but, really, what are the chances of getting cast? Ericsmom’s advice about trying journalism confirms my feeling that the Theater Dept. at these schools is not the best place to land after you have been rejected.
