What are some good graduate schools. I want an MFA in Acting. At Actorfeast in NYC, a speaker said there were only a handful of good Graduate Schools for Theatre. Anyways, what are some good schools?
I'm in the BA program, but they offer an MFA in Acting. Admission is based at least partially on an audition, and I believe it takes 3 years to complete.
Yale School of Drama (3 years - accepts 16 a class) NYU Graduate Drama (3 years - accepts 18 a class) USD/Old Globe Graduate Acting (2 years - accepts 7 a class) American Conservatory Theater (3 years - accepts 17 a class) UC Irvine Graduate Acting (3 years) New School for Drama (3 years) Pace University Actors Studio (3 years - accepts a class)
Many people also attend Julliard after getting a degree which requires a four year full-time residency, I believe they admit 20 to a class.
I don't know who told you there were only a handful of good MFA schools, but they were dead wrong. There are probably more good MFAs than there are quality BFAs. A few of the good ones that have yet to be mentioned are ...
UC San Diego University of Delaware Brown University/Trinity Rep University of Indiana National Theatre Conservatory, Denver Harvard Institute for Advanced Theatre Training Alabama Shakespeare Festival Rutgers University/Mason Gross School of the Arts University of Washington
