<p>be_somebody, Kat has given you a good list of schools to have a look at. I just wanted to comment on one thing you said about being an international student. I’m not sure if you were talking about having to pay extra for tuition, or just travel expenses and such, but at private colleges, you will not pay extra just because you are international. That will only come into play with state schools where you’d have to pay out of state fees, just like any other student who is not a resident in that state. Just wanted to clarify that!</p>
<p>Tisch is certainly conservatory style training, but within a large university, so you’d definitely be able to have a good amount of liberal arts classes there. It is even possible to double major in the College of Arts and Science, as my D did, if that’s something that interests you. You have excellent academic stats and shouldn’t have any problem with that aspect of admission. Your gpa is higher than the average - 3.63 and your SAT scores also in great shape with the middle 50% (CR and math) at NYU being 1300-1440, so you’re in the top 25% which is excellent!</p>
<p>Here’s a link to Tisch’s tech track studio, in case you’re interested:</p>

<p>And also the one for Playwrights Horizons which is a fabulous studio which allows for a diverse program of study:</p>
