Theatre Colleges Less Than 4 Hrs Away From Nyc

<p>Hi,</p>

<p>This is an odd request, but kindly post any and all BA and BFA theatre colleges you can think of that are less than 4 hrs away from NYC. </p>

<p>I know there are searches but there's no one search which can give you every single school because many schools have different and unique programs that are not exposed as much as others. Please just list your brain out. </p>

<p>Fredonia is NOT less than 4 hours away from NYC but it's a darn good Musical Theatre program .</p>

<p>You are also stretching it with Syracuse and Ithaca. I did the drive from Ithaca to NYU and door to door it was closer to 5 hours.</p>

<p>Actually, Centenary in northern NJ has a theatre program as well. I don't know much about them, but their location is great and you might want to explore further. Also Rowan in southern NJ,and Arcadia, Villanova, Franklin and Marshall and Temple? in PA.</p>

<p>Vassar (Poughkeepsie NY--about an hour and a half)</p>

<p>Skidmore (Saratoga Springs NY--about 2 and a half hours)</p>

<p>Oh--and take a look at Connecticut College, New London. They have a pretty rich program.
Also Wesleyan in Middletown, CT.</p>

<p>West Chester State, West Chester PA.
DeSales, near Allentown PA</p>

<p>I used to drive to NYC from Syracuse in about 4 hours by going through PA. </p>

<p>Skidmore is more like 3 hours from NYC, but still within the four hour trip.</p>

<p>Penn State, University Park used to take me more than 4 hours to NYC. </p>

<p>Boston College also has a good BA theatre program. There are actually a lot of colleges with BA theatre programs within a 4 hour drive to NYC...</p>

<p>Temple, in Phila, just brought on new faculty to strengthen undergrad MT. Worth taking a closer look at.</p>
