Hello all, I just got back from a college trip and I a, trying to decide between the BFA acting training program at Hartt vs the acting BFA program at northern Illinois university. I’m out of state, so I can’t get in state tuition at northern Illinois, so it’s a toss up for me. I was really impressed with both programs and what hoping to hear from some current students or alumni on which they like. My current worry about NIU is the Meinel technique, I’m not sure whether I would respond to it well after feeling so comfortable with Stanislavsky. Plus the fact that MFA actors can take the big roles a lot of the time. Plus their theatre facilities are currently under renovation so they have no theatre building. That being said, I absolutely loved the rest of the department. The students there feel so close like a family, and the instructors have taken a personal interest in me. Hartt on the other hand seems amazing as well, their facilities are awesome, and their instructors seem to care as well. I guess a negative would b it seems more focused on musical theatre, and the building is separated from campus. Does anyone know how nice the campus is there? I didn’t get. A chance to tour it much. Also, how is the acting instruction there? Any help would be awesome!
Some misspellings there. Misner not Meinel.
No one has any info? Does this mean no one applied to or went to either?
