[quote=Anonymous]I applied to two schools that had advertised in the high school theater magazine my drama teacher brought to school for us. DePaul and Carnegie Mellon. Their ads attracted me and they had amazing acting programs. I auditioned at DePaul, and did not get in, and Carnegie Mellon didn't even give me an audition. Ended up at an open admissions fine arts school in Chicago --- Columbia College Chicago, which all-in-all worked (in fact I would recommend that anyone looking at studying acting consider it, at least as a safety).

But I had no help with this at all. I grew up with zero parental help, and my high school had 2 counselors for 2000 kids in a school with a 50% drop out rate. So I had to figure it out. I admit to catching my feelings once in awhile when I see how involved the DCUM parents are in helping their children navigate where to go to college and how to apply. I was shooting in the dark.

But dream school? If I could go back in time? Yale for drama. Second choice: Tisch at NYU. Third choice: SMU. [/quote]
