<p>My daughter will be a senior next year (2013-2014).</p>
<p>She will be busy soon with a summer conservatory program and a local outdoor show, but in between times, will be trying to get ahead with essays and parts of applications and supplements (as well as ACT prep, pshew).</p>
<p>Our question: if she plans on applying to <mostly> LACs with good theatre programs, what type of resume is included with applications? A performance resume (hers is solid and year 'round for the last 5 years with performances, stage managing, and assistant directing) or a "regular" college resume listing ECs (practically non-existent except for theatre and speech). She has never held a job and she has had little interest in clubs, because she is either doing training, shows, or something else theatre-related.</mostly></p>
<p>Here are some questions:</p>
<p>-- BA students: did you provide resumes with your college applications? were they theatre-specific?</p>
<p>-- Are you able to upload resumes or other supporting document when submitting most applications?</p>
<p>-- Because of your intense focus on only theatre-specific endeavors, did you ever feel this hurt your chance of acceptance into a BA program in a liberal arts college?</p>
<p>-- Did you talk about theatre experiences in your college essays? if so, how were they received? </p>
<p>I'm always appreciative of your thoughtful responses. Thanks in advance for any guidance on these topics :-)</p>
