USC BFA Major Chances? :D

<p>Hey Everyone,
Ive been looking at CC posts for a very long time but I thought that I might try a post and see what responses I may get. Just a little background on myself, I am a Senior in high school and I am 18 yrs old. I have been making people laugh my whole life but I became really serious about acting about 4 years ago and I want to make a career out of it, Its what I love to do!</p>

<p>Anyways, My USC BFA audition is tomorrow (dun dun DUUUUN) and Im freaking out. Although I am very confident in my acting abilities, I just thought id ask everyone on here what they thought about my chances of getting in, so here is my College-related info.</p>

<p>I havent had the best grades, freshman year I had a whopping a 2.6 then a 3.0 sophmore year, a 3.5 junior year, and a 4.1 so far this year. No community service, but I am involved in various clubs such as Drama and SAGE. I was a member of SAGE for 2 years and I was the founding president of my schools Drama Club (held meetings, created events, approved documents, etc.)</p>

<p>The main thing I have going for me is my resume. I have built up a 2 page resume in the last 4 years and yes I tried as hard I could to keep it at one page (made smaller margins, size 10 font, cut out a few pieces) but ultimately I had to make it two pages. I have gotten leads in 14+ high school productions as well as a few productions outside of school, I have taken 5+ courses at ACT San Francisco and have also been in productions with them. The most prominent production that I was a part of was a world premiere play at ACT. we auditioned in February for a part in a World Premiere play that would take us to Scotland for 2 weeks to study with the playwright as well as perform with 10+ other countries at His Majestys Theatre. They only do this trip bi-annually. Out of about 100 auditionees, I was picked along with 7 other actors to be in the world premiere and after coming back from Scotland we spent 3 months in rehearsal and premiered it at ACT in the fall. It was an amazing experience and it helped me gain much more confidence in my abilities.</p>

<p>Lastly, I have very very strong letters of rec from very high people in the theatre community, which I hope help me out a lot, but then again who knows?!</p>

<p>Acting is my life and I have already begun to develop my hard skin to rejection because along with all of the productions ive been in there have been multiple failed auditions and callbacks. I do not mean to sound like I am bragging I just thought I would lay it out for the crowd. Any input would be wonderful, just opinions on my chances or the USC program as a whole, I would love to hear it all! Thanks for reading and I look forward to hearing back from you!</p>

<p>oh and SAT: 1630</p>

<p>anyone? can I bump this baby up?</p>

<p>It is difficult to chance for this because a lot of it depends on your audition, portfolio, etc, and obviously we can’t see that. Even if we could, we wouldn’t really know what to make of it unless it was embarrassingly bad. So that’s probably one reason why you aren’t getting many responses on your chance: sorry!</p>

did you end up getting in?
