<p>Carnegie Mellon has a BFA program in directing
I believe NYU - Playwrights Horizons does as well.</p>
<p>There are many schools that will offer the undergraduate training, education, and directing experiences.</p>
<p>People enter graduate school in directing from many different educational backgrounds. Generally, MFA Directing programs are looking for students who have been out working in the industry for a few years post undergrad.</p>
