<p>the other, better USC
has a non-auditioned BA also. However, they do look at your resume and your application for indications that you’re really passionate about theatre. I only did shows in high school, and never had a leading role, but I was accepted and I love it! Most of the kids at USC, especially in the School of Theatre, pretty much are professionals already, in attitude and talent, if not in practice. Though I have to say one of my BA classmates (whom I’ve actually never met) is off shooting the Hunger Games movie this summer as a principle and then two acquaintances have sizable roles in shows on the Disney Channel and MTV. I don’t know how they balance school and class, but they do it somehow! But I don’t think most USC students are off doing that much work in Hollywood while they’re in school. </p>
<p>I know I feel like the least experienced person in the room pretty much every time, but I try to not let it get to me. I just try to do the best acting I can.</p>
