Choosing a program

Thanks in advance for any feedback you can give me. I’ve been accepted to 4 programs so far. SEMO, UAB, Viterbo and ASU. Still waiting to hear from CCPA and Ball State. Can anyone tell me any pros/cons of these programs?

All in MT? If so, I’ve heard outstanding things about Viterbo and UAB and don’t know as much about the others. The cons (if it is to you) might be location. I heard Viterbo is hard to get to but once you’re there, its MT program is favorably reviewed. Depending on where you live, UAB could be easier or just as hard to get to.

I cannot comment on those programs specifically, but I can share a process we did with my S when was making his decision in 2017. Once you have all your acceptances, have someone (like a parent) print out the course curricula of each program without the name of the school. I went to the trouble of grouping like courses together (acting, dance, movement, voice (acting), voice (singing), etc.). You can then place the programs side by side to compare the programs without the school names. Of course, there are several other factors, but we found this exercise was one good step to take in the process,

Congratulations on your acceptances. The fun part is that now YOU are in control with your acceptances in hand.
