While neuroscience wasn’t something any of my children were particularly interested in, there were some LACs we looked at that seemed to have pretty strong departments.
One school that leaps to mind for your daughter is Lake Forest College. Pretty sure she would qualify for their top automatic merit aid and would be in the running for their competitive merit aid as well. When we toured the campus - the neuroscience program was highly touted and really impressive. They have very strong placement in neuro and a lot of ‘extras’ for those interested.
Not sure about their theatre programs but you are relatively close to Chicago so you do have the Chicago theatre scene as a draw.
