<p>Hello. To be short, I absolutely love Northwestern U. The reputable B.A. theatre program, its location so near Chicago, and its prestige. Unfortunately I had no idea I missed the January 1st deadline. Now I feel a bit like I messed up my future. I feel certain that if I could still apply this is exactly where I'd want to go. Is it possible to get into Northwestern as a freshman for the spring semester? Could I even enter into the Theatre program there in the spring semester? That may be unlikely, so should I study somewhere else and transfer after a year? What are my chances, given that I meet all academic standards for Northwestern?</p>
<p>They don’t have winter/spring admission for freshmen. You’d have to try sophomore transfer (unless you opt for a gap year). The theater program may not be transfer friendly though.</p>
