Does U of A have a good theater program and decent financial aid support?

I really want to enroll in Loyola Marymount or NYU after being accepted, but tuition is pricey for OOS and I’m debating whether I want to go into that much debt.

I know U of A is dissimilar to those schools, but I wouldn’t mind attending if they have a decent theater program and offer better financial aid for out of staters.

Any advice? I know they have rolling admissions so acceptance isn’t guaranteed, but I figure it wouldn’t be terribly difficult to apply now if I wanted.

Correction, tuition is just pricey all around. Suppose I should clarify LMU and NYU are private.
