Theater Minor

I posted this in the musical theater thread, but I figured there might even be more people who could help answer my question here, since musical theater or acting majors are, obviously, not going to be minoring in theater.

Anyway, I was wondering what anyone here knew about minoring in theater at Ithaca. I didn’t get in to any musical theater programs yet. I have one to hear from and one BFA acting to hear from too, but I don’t have high hopes for either, so I’m exploring my alternatives, one of which is going to Ithaca, where I was accepted for English even though I was not accepted in to the musical theater program, and minoring in theater/getting private voice lessons and taking dance classes locally. I’ve emailed the theater department to ask them about the minor. It appears, from the wording on the website, that anyone can declare theater as a minor without an audition and it’s not a ton of credits, but at least you leave with something that shows you did take theater courses. Any thoughts?

Thanks in advance
