I’m glad caitface is here to answer your questions.

On the issue of BA students taking BFA spots, in the past, BFA students were cut after re-auditioning to stay in the program and their replacements were BA students who auditioned to get in and also transfer students. The commitment to the BFA students who went through a rigorous audition process to be admitted as freshmen seems to “wane” after one year and if they find current BA students that they like better, these students are offered a slot and some BFA students are let go. There are lots of posts on CC documenting this in the past with students from U of Arizona sharing these statistics, as well as a faculty member. Try to read all the threads on that here as it will provide background information and then get the “numbers” straight from U of A (if you can…that is another issue as faculty from U of A have contradicted themselves on these numbers in the past right here on CC).
