Also, Muhlenberg College in Allentown PENNSYLVANIA is a non-audition school you should consider adding to the list. They give out talent-based scholarships after the optional scholarship audition.
The website for Emory & Henry in VA says the BFA is auditioned. This list says non-audition. Anyone have any more info.?
@broadwaybabyyy - Muhlenberg is on the list under NON-AUDITION BA & BS.
Changed Emory & Henry, Southeast Missouri State and Southwestern to Auditioned BFA; added PCPA to 2 yr Auditioned Programs; added Temple and Anderson (SC) Auditioned BFA; added Anderson (IN) to Auditioned BM MT; and removed UT Austin BA MT (program was cancelled).

Just as an FYIâThe UK programs, with the exception of Royal Conservatoire, do not differentiate between MT and straight theatre. The emphasis is on acting skills, but students are also rigorously trained in singing and dancing (not tap). They also perform in a musical their second and third years. If anyone has any questions, please feel free to PM me.

@EmsDad According to Western Connecticut Stateâs new brochure and a rep in admissions, theyâve changed the MT program from BA to BFA (although itâs not updated on their website). FYI, theyâre also extending in-state tuition to certain counties in NY in the Hudson Valley.
Brenau / Univ of North GA partnership for BFA in MT or Acting and BA Theatre instituted prescreens this year. Apparently they have received a lot of applicants. They are holding two in-person auditions. The first audition was this past weekend (total of 13 students for all degrees were invited). The last audition is scheduled for the Spring. The faculty determine merit aid based on the audition. In general, aid is generous for good grades and test scores (i.e., Brenau scholar is full tuition, and Trustee scholar is approximately half tuition). The students that hosted said that the program is being revamped and strengthened (it was great already). Highly recommend it.

Additional Admissions Requirements
All prospective theatre majors must complete an audition form and attend a Theatre Audition before enrolling.
Saw this article a friend posted about the ending of the MT program at UT Austin. Thought I would pass along. http://kxan.com/2017/11/29/ut-musical-theater-program-annual-musicals-to-end-this-spring/
CAP21 now has a 4 yr program and north central college is a non audition BA
Univ of Mary Washington in Fredericksburg, VA . BA in Theatre with an MT minor. Non Audition
