Syracuse University vs. UC Santa Cruz for Theatre

Hello all! I’m currently debating between Syracuse University and UC Santa Cruz for theatre. Syracuse has always been my dream school and was so happy when I got in… but it’s basically double the price of Santa Cruz with the Tepper Semester and all that jazz involved with the theatre program. Now, I know Syracuse has the better theatre program but I don’t know if it’s worth it to be in debt after college as a theatre major. I want to be able to keep my options open and I know Santa Cruz has a good program and would just like to know more about the program before I commit myself to an expensive school that might not give me much more benefit than if I go to Santa Cruz. What do you guys know about the program? To be in debt with a well known theatre degree or to not be in debt with a not so well known(but still good) theatre degree is the main question…? Thank you all for you’re help!
