<p>Thanks for sharing! D has an audition scheduled at UNC later this month and she will be glad to see this. </p>

<p>Since yours is a BA program, is there any opportunity for study abroad or is the schedule so tightly constrained that there is no time? I had heard that this particular BA program tends to function more like a BFA in that regard.</p>

<p>University of Northern Colorado offers the opportunity to study in Perth Australia at the Edith Cowan University for a semester. I understand that a few acting majors and 1 MT major have done this.</p>

<p>This program is DEFINITELY structured like a BFA program and has been rumored to possibly change to a BFA program in the near future. We are now at 80 credits of MT classes to finish in order to graduate. Furthermore, we are also required to have a well rounded Liberal Arts background as well (40 credits).</p>

<p>As for the study abroad program: I have expressed interest in doing it my sophomore fall semester (that is what’s recommended). I don’t know too much about it yet, but from what I understand the credits should transfer over well enough so that you won’t take longer than 4 years to graduate. As I gain more information I will be more then happy to expand on the subject!</p>
