<p>Hi Everyone,</p>
<p>So I'm new to this whole forum though I've been reading up for months now and just wanted some detailed opinions. I currently live in Ottawa, Canada and am graduating June 2012 and will spend the majority of this year auditioning for various schools. Now out of all those schools only 1 is in Canada (National Theatre School) and the rest all in the states. Now I'm just posting this thread to ask from experience, reviews, opinion and generally every relevant viewpoint, which school do you think has the most beneficial (in all senses of the word) Musical Theater Program in New York City (not state). I'm only asking for NYC because it is my plan to move there for various reasons and it would just be a lot easier if the school was there. Now another little sidenote i'd like to add was I was originally very very very intent on going to AMDA but after reading this forum I see that the school has a horrible rep among people so now I'm kinda lost regarding it, reconsidering my choice and I'm pretty much back to the starting point in looking for a school to go to.</p>
<p>Oh and a few points which would really help when talking about the schools are mainly:</p>
<p>-The program itself (how beneficiary, do you learn much etc)
-The acceptance rate
-The teachers
-The people who usually go there
-Tuition (I can look up the one for international students)
-The teachers
-The housing (weather it's amazing and worth value, expensive, ok to live in, or not worth it and i'd be better off just searching for an apartment before if I got accepted)</p>
<p>Feel free to add anything else and Thank you very much in advance!</p>
