Thoughts on San Diego State BA Acting program?

<p>My D was accepted to San Diego State for fall 2014, BA Acting. Any thoughts or comments on the program? We can't seem to find too much information as to the quality of the program. Help!</p>

<p>I can’t speak to SDSU’s program specifically, but as an outside observer, I do see many SDSU graduates, both BA and MFA, thriving in the local and regional theatre scene in San Diego. If your D would be interested in staying in the Southern California/Arizona region, I think she would make valuable connections. The theatre professionals I know who have degrees from SDSU are very talented, and have worked on national tours and at well-regarded LORT theaters. San Diego is a strong theatre community with many opportunities. Sorry I can’t be more specifically helpful about the actual program. Maybe you could find some recent alumni to speak with?</p>

<p>We visited UCSD and found the department office to be very offputting. They had nothing set up to explain the program to undergrads and did not even want to answer our questions directly. Because they have a good reputation, we decided they must be more interested in grad students. But maybe we just caught them on bad day?</p>

<p>SDSU and UCSD are two different schools…</p>

<p>Sorry. </p>

<p>@kfrizzle12 - I see you aren’t getting much info so far. What are your D’s other options? I assume you have already put a deposit somewhere? </p>
