<p>Hi,
I'm currently a sophomore at a small, top 25 liberal arts school in New York. I'm looking to transfer to a larger university. Here's the deal:</p>

<p>I want to be a writer, and continue to sing as my hobby, perhaps be in a band. I plan to major in theatre. I'm looking for a larger university in a large city, with a good theatre program and a good music program I could take classes from. (preferrably no auditions, I don't have the time or money). And by good, I don't mean it has to be tops, just somewhere I could learn and practice my craft. I'm not really concerned about the quality of academics at this point, just the arts programs, and the last requirement is it must be cheap. For me this means either low tuition, or really good financial aid and/or merit aid (no loans, that's half the reason I'm transferring). I know I'm asking a lot, but can anyone help me? I'm from Ohio, so close to home would be nice too. Right now I'm considering OSU. Out-of-state is fine though, but not too far away.
Thanks so much, I will owe you all my undying gratitude.</p>

<p>Please help. I'm so desperate.</p>

<p>Ames, if you are from Ohio, you should be familiar with University of Cincnnati. They seem to meet all of your needs to the "T." They are in a fairly large city, and have a fabulous musical theater and music program. Voice training is also top notch. In addition, the in-state tuition for Ohio residents is unbeatable anywhere. Your problem will be that Cincinnati Conservatory of Music is one of the top notch programs in the world and is hard to get into.</p>
