<p>I'd love to get this list started. Here are the ones that I know of:
American University
UCLA
Muhlenberg
Northwestern (MT minor)</p>
<p>Aren't these schools included in the 'Big List' that Thesbo and Dr. John compiled for the FAQ?</p>
<p>oh!! ok, I'll check that out then, thanks.</p>
<p>Since my D just got accepted into the MT program at American I called the dept because I had some questions. This seems like a good spot to share the info.</p>
<p>I spoke with a senior theatre major. Her sense was that it being a BA gives the students more flexibility--there are enough courses that if you want it to be more like a BFA, she said you can do that. But if you are interested in taking more courses outside of theatre or MT, you can do that as well. She said it is easier to double major. MT are required to take two years of voice (same professors as voice majors) but she said most take it all four years. Needless to say she loves the program. They have just opened a new performing arts building and have hired more faculty, so they are making the program a bit larger: her class has 6 MT majors, the class behind her has 8. She also said that this year they had more applications than ever before and were sending out many more rejections--competition is getting stiffer. And for those of you who are juniors, September is when you should call to find out audition information. She also told me that DC is now ranked number two in the nation for the amount of live theatre.</p>
<p>Hope this is helpful.</p>
<p>Great news.....you guys must be so excited!!!! Congrats again! You'll have to let everyone know what the school's like firsthand if she goes there.</p>
<p>Millikin University (Decatur, IL) has a BA program in Musical Theater.</p>
