I was wondering if acting majors ever switch to MT or the other way around once attending OCU? I was accepted to acting and I love the school but getting a lot of dance and voice training is very important to me.
Thanks!
Yes. It happens both ways. D has students in her class that auditioned for MT during their freshman year and were accepted. She also has peers who auditioned for the Acting BFA and switched from MT to acting. The latter typically happens if someone is struggling with or just doesn’t like the intensive focus on music theory, aural skills, piano, choir, etc… during the first 2 years of the MT degree since it is a music degree. I’d really examine the curriculum for each and see which best suits you.
Great to know, thank you!
