Acting
Program Description
The Bachelor of Fine Arts in Acting is designed to prepare students for entry into the professional theatre as a performer. In addition to the courses listed below, students are required to take TA 33600 Survey of Dramatic Literature as one of the literature classes in the general education core. Students in the BFA program are required to attend mandatory assessment meetings with the theatre faculty at the end of each semester. If a student’s work is deemed to be deficient, he or she may be put on probationary status in the program or asked to consider another major with the opportunity to re-audition into the program the following semester or academic year. If necessary, it is recommended that full-time students pursuing the Bachelor of Fine Arts work no more than 15 hours per week in outside employment. Students must receive permission from the department to work on a non-departmental production in any capacity.
