<p>I’m new to this forum (our DD is a junior theatre major at a performing arts high school) and I have a related question about “type.”</p>
<p>Is it correct to assume that the programs that accept a limited number of students (i.e. 12 girls, 12 boys as an example) are also looking to balance “type” in their admitted students? I would guess that your “type” (leading lady, ingenue, comic sidekick, character actor, etc), and your “physical attributes” (height, weight, hair color, ethnicity, etc.) influences admit decisions when a program is building a class?</p>
