<p>We are also embroiled in the BA vs BFA debate at our house. My D has narrowed her choices down to a BFA and a BA program – and is leaning strongly toward the BFA, mainly just because it is a BFA I think. The curriculums are very similar (the BFA program has a good liberal arts component). She feels that both are a really good fit (thus, the debate). The BA program may actually offer more opportunities. But she has her heart set on a BFA. In her mind, it is what she has been working for and seems to legitimize or validate that work/her talent. It would be good if they could look past that and judge the program fit by the program rather than the degree, but the degree may ultimately be that elusive tie-breaker.</p>
