Is The New School in New York a good acting program?

I was just wondering if I could get any insight about what The New School’s acting program was like. Also is there film acting training any good? And also any suggestions near or in New York I could look at.

New school is a BFA in dramatic arts and is more of a broad theater studies program that gives a well rounded degree vs an intense and focused acting BFA. They take acting -but the curriculum is a lot more flexible than most BFA programs. It is an interesting program and the kids we know there do like it.

Another option - Pace has several acting majors -one is for film and tv acting specifically if that is of interest.

D has a friend getting his MFA from the New School - he seems very happy there

Thank you so much!

@Dramakid000 just curious. Have you/your child auditioned? My D applied/auditioned early to The New School and we are still waiting to hear. From what we heard at the open house, TNS would be a good fit for my D.

@ginaf1102 I have not sorry. :frowning:

But I hope for the best!
