Top musical theater colleges?

<p>Hello College Confidential!</p>

<p>I'm a junior in high school and I'm searching for colleges. I'm planning on majoring in musical theater.</p>

<p>My top picks right now are Syracuse University, Ithaca College, Pace University, University of the Arts, Elon University, and Belmont University.</p>

<p>Any thoughts on these schools? Are there other musical theater schools you all would recommend? There are SO MANY out there. It's hard to tell the good from the bad.</p>

<p>ALSO: Do you think you need to go to college in New York to "make it big"? I've heard countless people say that you do, but then I think of people like Kristin Chenoweth who went to school in Oklahoma and ended up on Broadway! Just curious :)</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>Oh I forgot to mention… I would prefer a school that is small to medium sized and not outrageously expensive!</p>
