<p>Hi, this is my first post, so bear with me.</p>
<p>I've recently been looking at CCC as a college option for Musical Theatre. I would love to make it big in musical theatre and it's basically my dream. I'm also very academic and I take school very seriously. From what they're website says, they only have a B.A. program, but the application says they have both a B.A. and a B.F.A program. So I have a few questions. 1. Which program would you suggest for me? 2. What is the real difference between a B.A. and a B.F.A? (also, will I get the same exposure to professionals in both?) 3. And lastly, if anyone has attended CCC, please please pleaseee give me your opinion on the school.</p>
<p>I don't have a lot of contribute in terms of CCC... a friend of mine's D just graduated from the dance program and auditioned for and has been accepted as an associate member in a dance company, but I do not know people who have gone there for MT.</p>
<p>However, in therms of the other part of your questions.... in general in a BA program you will take more general education courses than in a BFA program, however this is not always the case, so it is important to look at the requirements for all programs in which you are interested. You can usually find this information on the school website.</p>
<p>A good place to get started, and a great description of the difference between BFA programs and BAs is located on a page near the top of the main Musical Theatre page, called the FAQ link. Click on that for a discussion regarding the difference in rpograms, as well as a link to the "Big List" of MT programs all over the country.</p>
