<p>the amount of required courses in a BA will generally vary from a ratio of 70% outside of the major/ 30% inside the major to 50% outside of the major/ 50% inside the major. </p>
<p>the amount of required courses in a BFA will generally vary from a ratio of 40% outside the major/ 60% inside the major to 10% outside the major/ 90% inside the major. </p>
<p>HOWEVER, this does not take into account the non-required courses that a student may chose to take inside (or outside) of the major. Often a BA program will lend a little more flexibility in scheduling than a BFA, allowing a student the time to explore and train in many areas of theatre (or outside interests). But, this is not always the case. Some BFAs will offer many opportunities to develop skills in multiple areas as well, and some BAs may not.</p>
<p>Each program is different, so it is important to look at the curriculum of each school carefully and ask specific questions of the programs at the schools on your list.</p>
