Does anyone have any feedback on Manhattanville’s MT program? Can’t seem to find much info - My D is seriously considering their program.
My son is also considering this program, but we have heard or seen much on here about it.
We toured the campus and it’s absolutely gorgeous – We met the MT Head, Mr Cherry who was very nice and spent a little time with us. I think this is more of an up and coming program …
Very happy to hear, is your daughter still considering after the tour? We have a tour set up for April, we are just starting our journey for my son. He likes the look of the campus, but we were uncertain about the program, we’ve heard it’s up an coming, but he is thinking he only wants BFA, I’m trying to get him to look at BA and BFA. He currently does not have a lot of schools on his list and it’s been a struggle to get him to look past a handful, he starts vocal lessons this week, so hopefully his coach will give him some more ideas. Best of Luck to your daughter.
Best of luck to your son. The campus and staff are wonderful.
Forgot to mention… after our tour, my DD said she wants to go there. Totally speaking from the “feel” of the campus which is very important!! They have a good program, but there are certainly others that are more in line with what she is looking for.
Any other feedback on Manhattanville BFA or BA in theatre??
I’ve been trying to get someone else to post but not having much luck. Have you toured the school?
We applied. Haven’t heard anything yet
@stanfordal2019 They take their time – have you toured the school? My D loved the campus and the staff when we toured. They are growing their MT program – Curious what your thoughts are.
Got an email acceptance today. Have never seen the school. Don’t know much about the program. Trying to find more information.
We toured the campus in January - if you have any specific questions let me know and I’ll try to answer.

@BlessedNStressed we actually visited the campus in December and got a private tour met the musical theater director. Absolutely stunning campus. Very rich in history the program is relatively new but if they only except I think 16 kids. But it’s a growing program you can go online and pull the curriculums. Very impressed with the staff. It was late so we didn’t have a chance to talk to any students. They came through with a pretty good financial backing. My concern was the performance based it was only a very large black box. They also have a castle where they do some performance as well but not to the extent that some of the other programs offer. Not sure any of this helped but good luck with your decision

@user_752736 Thanks. This is exactly what we needed. You are the best!!
D was just admitted with a pretty good scholarship offer!
CONGRATS @StanfordAI2019 !!!
Congratulations to your D @StanfordAl2019!
My son has been accepted academically to Manhattanville and we have submitted a virtual audition. We are wondering if anyone can tell us more about the school and/or the program. We have not been able to tour and don’t think we will be able to.

My D was accepted to the BFA in musical theater. I am not sure how a visit will happen.

Congratulations!! My son got his acceptance to the program on Friday!! He is very excited about it. We are waiting on financial aid to make a decision. We have not visited either, and don’t know how we can make it happen. We have been watching youtube videos and looking for pictures. He did ask if it would be possible to sit in virtually on a class this month, and they said they’d try to set that up.
