A school for this?

<p>I want to major in business and minor in theatre.</p>

<p>What are some schools out there, besides NYU, that would be good for these two majors?</p>

<p>I want to go visit some colleges, i just dont know what ones to visit, there is so many!</p>

<p>I'd appreciate your help, Thanks!</p>

<p>I would reccomend taking a look at Michigan (Ann-Arbor). I'm not sure how strong its arts program is, but it is a very well rounded school, so I assume it will have a good theatre program. Michigan has one of the best business schools in the nation (I think it is behind only Penn), and a fantastic college experience.</p>

<p>Michigan's theatre program is world-class, conservatory-level, only for those who are stopping over on the way to Broadway. Harder to get into than admission to the Ivies. You'll want to look at schools where the theatre program is a B.A. degree (liberal arts), not a B.F.A. (pre-professional).</p>

<p>I'd say OSU is a pretty good bet. One of the top business programs and an official theatre minor.</p>

<p>Carnegie Mellon is a great one, along with UCLA, Northwestern, Cornell. These are the schools I'd aim for, in addition to NYU. </p>

<p>Or, on a slightly less selective note, one could look at: College of Charleston, Syracuse, Fordham, IU Bloomington, Brandeis, Boston U...</p>

<p>UChicago has a nice theatre program too, if you're willing to go with Econ instead of Business.</p>

<p>U Maryland has both fields.</p>

<p>University of Miami</p>

<p>If you want to minor in theatre and major in something else, being led to Carnegie Mellon, NYU, UCLA, etc. is like saying that you're interested in playing intramural football and being told "Go to Notre Dame - I hear they have a pretty good football team." CMU for instance - you audition for theatre, about 3% get in, those students take one Math course, one Writing course, and a one-hour Computer Skills seminar, then spend the remainder of their four years doing nothing but theatre. Schools that are renowned for threatre would actually be bad places to try to minor in theatre - they'll save all their roles for their majors. I'd look for a good school with both departments that allows a theatre minor and seems to put on a good assortment of productions and have something more than a one- or two-person theatre department.</p>

<p>Cornell doesn't have the best program in theater at their campus, but the students take classes at Ithaca College that has an excellent Theater program.<br>
Ithaca College students go to Cornell to take Engineering and other classes.</p>

<p>USC...good undergrad business program, and great theater program. besides that, USC actively promotes minors in disparate fields, not to mention all minors and double majors in general. so much so that they even give grants/scholarships to certain students who do in two varied areas of study.</p>
