BFA includes adacemics?

I am a little confused as to what the BA program includes. Do you take academic classes or only performing arts classes?

Boston Conservatory is a BFA music theatre program. Freshman take 19 1/2 credits (18 1/2 if you do a shorter private voice lesson each week). Of those…there is a 3 credit writing class then a 2 credit history of music theatre class, ear training, piano, seminar, voice & speech, acting, movement, private voice, jazz, tap & ballet.

This is so helpful thank u!
