<p>You sound very similar to me (not a very confident singer/dancer, focus on acting, lots of community theater, strong student academically) and I'm applying ED to Northwestern.</p>
<p>I attended Northwestern's National High School Institute: Theatre Arts division this past summer. The program is for students who just finished their junior year of high school. The schedule is similar to those at Conservatories. The faculty works hard to help you decide whether a BA or BFA is the right path for you. You should DEFINITELY look into it. <a href="http://www.northwestern.edu/nhsi/Theatre.html%5B/url%5D">http://www.northwestern.edu/nhsi/Theatre.html</a></p>
<p>It was an amazing experience, and I'd love to answer any questions you have.</p>
<p>Good luck!</p>
