<p>Let me start by saying that right now my EFC is 0. Yeah, we're poor.
Updated list</p>
<p>CMU- Perfectly between NYC (my birthplace and of course the greatest theatre town on Earth) and my home in Kentucky, less than one day's drive either way. Amazing program with impressive Alumni. Housing is unmatched by any other college I have researched. Pittsburg seems nice. I also like being within one days drive of the shore.</p>
<p>NYU- Great program, Great Location, Great Opportunities, Relatives and friends nearby,worth being far from home.</p>
<p>Rutgers- Same reasons as NYU, but scared of the RU screw.</p>
<p>Northen Kentucky University- Best Theatre program in Kentucky, close to home, close to Cincinatti, close to Actor's Theatre in Lousville.</p>
<p>Berea College- Free tuition and free laptop to all attending, small liberal arts college, "Harvard of the South" opportunities for many fellowships, pretty good theatre program allthough no BFA offered</p>
<p>Southern Methodist University- Uncle was major contributer, will not apply unless a buttload of FinAid is offered ( I don't really want to be in Texas)</p>
<p>Florida State University- Mother's almer mater, will not apply unless an Alumni scholarship is offered or I am likely to get a lot of scholarship or FinAid money</p>
<p>University of Kentucky- close to home, relatives in city, sister attending same school, offers a BFA with many productions.</p>
<p>Penn State- Good Theatre school, midpoint between NYC and Kentucky, less than one day's drive to the shore. Possibilities for more FinAid.</p>
<p>Otterbein- Close to home. Great Theatre program. doctorjohn seems nice, lol</p>
<p>University of Evensville- close to home, great theatre school, good enough for Thesbo</p>
<p>DePaul- still scared of being frozen to death, but I have heard nothing but great things about this school, Chicago is a happening place for theatre.</p>
<p>Another thing I am looking for is a senior showcase in NY and LA. LA preferably as I want to be a film actor. I believe that a good actor must have a basis in theatre and learn to scale it down for film. I still am not sure if I want to consider a MT major. I have sung all of my life, I'm in an elite choral group in my school, and I play guitar and sing about an hour or two every day. I am worried that I may miss some intense dramatic traing and it be replaced by dance classes if I do a musical theatre major. For film acting, I guess going for MT seems unfocused to me. Any thoughts on this would be appreciated.</p>
