i would consider professional training programs such as Circle in the Square, AMDA, Neighborhood Playhouse, etc.
these aren't COLLEGES, they're places where you study STRICTLY theatre -- no academics. from your subject title, i'm assuming that it might be a learning disability, and in that case, i think professional training programs would be your best bet.
they DO NOT award degrees, however. you may be able to transfer theatre credits to an affiliated college and get a degree, but they ARE NOT degree programs.
hope that helps, and good luck!

I'll take the ACT because it says act.

SATs are optional for Muhlenberg...but if you choose not to submit them you have to set up an interview with the admissions office (but I would advise to do that at any college you apply to anyway.)
Very few, if any, schools dont need either. I would arrange a meeting and tell them of your problem, I'm sure they'll assist you in anyway possible.

Bryan, BOTH of the testing organizations will make accomodations for your disability IF you can provide documentation of it. You can get a scribe, extra time, use a computer,etc. almost anything that you need can be dealt with. Contact the organizantions and ask or call the admissions director at a local college (or community college),
Good luck!
