Entry Requirements: Prospective students must schedule an on-campus audition for acceptance into the BFA in Theatre Arts - Acting Concentration degree program. There is currently no prescreen requirement to be granted an in-person audition. For more information about how to request an audition appointment, and what to prepare, please visit the BFA Auditions - Acting webpage here.
Degree Requirements: All degrees at WCSU require 120 semester hours (SH). This includes major requirements, general education requirements, cognates (where applicable), and free electives. This structure provides room for minors, internships, and study abroad.
Student Standing: Students must maintain an overall GPA of 2.0. Theatre courses with grades lower than “C” will not be accepted as meeting the requirements for the major.
General Education: All students must complete the General Education curriculum. General Education Requirements include both competency and breadth requirements. In some cases, major courses will satisfy competencies. These are indicated in the parentheses after the course title. For a complete description of the General Education program, click here.
Cognates: In some programs there are courses outside of the major that are required as pre-requisites or enhancements to the major course work. These courses may satisfy competencies and they will count toward the general education breadth requirement. If cognate courses are required, they are included in the list of courses required in the major.
Electives: All degrees require 120 semester hours. Elective credits are opportunities for minors, internships, study abroad, and just following general interests. We encourage all students to speak with their advisors about great opportunities for their elective courses.
Questions: For any questions regarding the BFA Theatre Arts - Acting degree program, please contact the BFA Acting Coordinator: Professor Pam McDaniel.
