Hello everyone. I was just wondering if anyone knew how many people get accepted into the BFA programs of these schools:
- University of the Arts
- Rider University
- Point Park University
- Hartt School of Music
- PACE University
- NYU Tisch
- Emerson College
- Wagner College
Thank you!
Which BFA: Musical Theater, Acting, Dance . . . ? NYU/Tisch accepts the greatest number into its assorted studios, but they only have one Musical Theater studio (although they will consider admitting candidates into another studio). They also receive more applicants than the others. Emerson and NYU have the strongest academic requirements. UArts is highly selective for Dance, but the department is quite large. Its Theater School acceptance rate is probably around 25% (lower for Musical Theater). I don’t know about Wagner and Rider. Point Park probably has a higher acceptance rate. Are you applying for Acting or Voice at Hartt? Pace’s BFA is very selective, with a more complicated application process than others I saw, but the BA is less so.
You should bring your questions to the Theater Majors Forum. There are some very experienced, knowledgeable contributors there.
Nobody can really chance a candidate for an auditioned BFA program.
