Academics and Theatre at Wagner

<p>Hi Everybody!</p>

<p>I’m a soon-to-be-senior (in 3 days!!) and I was wondering if you could give me some info!</p>

<p>Wagner College was just put at the top of my list of prospective colleges!!</p>

<p>What do you need academically to get into Wagner? I have a 3.8 GPA and I got a 30 on my ACT–is this good enough?</p>

<p>And what is the accpetance rate in the theatre school?</p>

<p>I’ll be visting the school in July when I’m in NY visiting family!</p>

<p>Also any other info that might be helpful in this process would be helpful!</p>

<p>Thanks a lot!</p>

<p>Hi Dillibird-
I’m just like you! I’m gonna be a senior, and wagner is my number one choice! With your scores you’ll probably get into schools, those are really great scores!!! The theatre part is a little more competitive, I read somewhere that hundreds audition for twenty spots? I’m not sure though. Good luck, maybe I’ll see you there next year!</p>

<p>Your GPA and test scores should make you a sure admit at Wagner. We had three kids at our local high school apply this year with substantially lower GPAs and test scores – and they did not necessarily take the most rigorous HS workload – and they were all admitted. None made the cut during auditions, however.</p>

<p>My daughter is a soon-to-be freshman for Theatre performance. She has a 3.5 GPA and scored 1650 on her SATs. Wagner is one of the schools that invites you to audition if you meet their academic requirements which shouldn’t be a problem for you. If I remember correctly, they accepted 36 students for the class of 2013. i think they had about 400-500 students audition which is less than a lot of schools. Good luck!</p>
