“There may indeed be differences between Syracuse and Tisch but the amount of personal attention students receive shouldn’t be a concern.”

I disagree whole-heartedly. I do not mean to put down Tisch in any way here, but I think personal attention needs to seriously be taken into account. Some studios are very intimate (15 per grade) and it is easy to get the necessary attention, whereas others are larger (70 per grade) and it may be more of a challenge to make yourself known. That is not to say that these are the sizes of the classes, I’m sure those are very small. But in terms of getting office hours and personal meetings with teachers, it’s often easier and more valuable in smaller studios. It really depends what studio your daughter was placed in.
