Transfer Students 2007/2008

<p>Hello all,</p>

<p>I heard UCLA being thrown back and forth on here, and just to let you know the theater major admission rate is 6.06% as stated on their transfer profile website. The UCLA theater major encompasses all concentrations though, so that statistic has MT, Acting, Directing, and Technical Theater applicants added together. Here is the website: [UCLA</a> Undergrad Admissions: Profile of Admitted Transfer Students by Major, Fall 2005](<a href=“http://www.admissions.ucla.edu/prospect/Adm_tr/Tr_Prof05_mjr.htm#TFT]UCLA”>http://www.admissions.ucla.edu/prospect/Adm_tr/Tr_Prof05_mjr.htm#TFT)</p>

<p>Also, I attend Santa Clara University as a theater major, musical theatre minor. Not to bash my current school, BUT the musical theatre minor is NOT something I would recommend for anyone SERIOUS about this as a profession(MT). Santa Clara only offers ONE musical EVERY OTHER YEAR. Enough of that my head is hurting. </p>

<p>Graduate MT programs, as previously stated, are scarce. Here are some according to the Big List (<a href=“Yahoo | Mail, Weather, Search, Politics, News, Finance, Sports & Videos):%5B/url%5D”>Yahoo | Mail, Weather, Search, Politics, News, Finance, Sports & Videos):</a> </p>

<p>Arizona State University (MM)
Boston Conservatory (MM)
New York University: Steinhardt (MA Vocal Performance w/ MT concentration)
Oklahoma City University (MM)
San Diego State University (MFA)
University of Central Florida (MFA)
University of Montana (MM) </p>

<p>Note: The University of Nevada is also listed, but it offers a MFA in Performance, which has MT training, but not enough to merit critical preparation for the profession, IMO. </p>

<p>Anyways, you are probably wondering why I am even here now. Well, I am applying to NYU and the University of Michigan this year for transfer. I know these schools are competitive, but I have seen my fair share of rejection. So, no big if I don’t get in. </p>

<p>I will most likely go to community college if I don’t get into them. Save me some money! </p>

<p>oh and acsh, don’t let what this site says dictate what schools you apply to!</p>

<p>good luck everyone!</p>
