What to Consider When Choosing a Performing & Visual Arts School

by Jennifer Gross tudents who wish to study visual or performing arts face some unique challenges during their college search.

The type of college, application process, and school philosophy are just a few of the important things to consider.

A Difference of Degree Prospective arts majors have two degree options: the first, a Bachelor of Arts (BA) degree with a major in the arts; the second, a Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA) for artists/performers or Bachelor of Music (BM) for musicians. The BA degree is the typical liberal arts degree, with a survey of courses in different areas and a specialty chosen in one area; students who major in English, history, and other humanities majors also earn BA degrees. The BFA or BM degree is more intensely focused in the arts.

There is a world of difference between a BA in Music and a BM in Music. A BA in Music consists of a lot of courses outside of the music major and approximately 12 or so courses within it. It may not be enough for the student who wants a passionate musical experience. A BM in Music, however, is essentially a professional degree with rigorous study through coursework in music history and theory.

Which degree you choose depends on your college and career goals. If you have a high degree of commitment to your art and desire an arts-focused college experience, a BFA or BM might be right for you. If you would rather study a variety of subjects along with your arts major, a BA may be the way to go.

Types of Colleges Visual and performing arts students have several types of colleges to consider. Conservatories and stand-alone arts schools offer an immersion-type

experience for students earning BM or BFA degrees.

All students will be artists, and the atmosphere is often highly competitive.

Some larger universities offer BFA/BM degrees as well as BA degrees in the arts. You may find somewhat self-contained music or arts schools within the larger university. In this atmosphere, students can pursue the more specialized degree while keeping the door open to taking a few liberal arts courses (which may be unavailable at specialized music or arts schools). In addition, a university-based arts program might give you the option of pursuing a double degree, such as a BM in Music and a BA in History.

The Application Process In addition to completing a typical college application, students in the visual or performing arts will need to prepare a portfolio or audition. Each school will have different requirements, listed in their collateral and on their website.

Keep in mind that although a portfolio or audition is an important part of the application, arts programs do consider academic records and test scores. Most colleges balance studentsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; creative talent with their academic achievements.

Assessing Your Abilities If you're interested in pursuing an arts major and career, now is the time to seek objective opinions of your abilities in the field.

In addition to asking for honest advice from high school and private teachers, students can also get outside assessment from professionals at a local symphony, dance troupe, or theater company. Visual arts students can receive portfolio evaluations from college representatives at one of the many National Portfolio Days. See www.portfolioday.net for details.

ARTIST profile

In Her Own Words Katie Willard

Sophomore, Music Theatre Baldwin Wallace Conservatory of Music Why did you decide to go to a Performing & Visual Arts school?

My mom would tell you I knew at age 4! I would sing and entertain in my living room. I did my first musical at 8 years old. I was hooked! In my junior year of high school, I started to become very serious about pursuing my dreams. I knew that I needed to go to a Performing & Visual Arts School, because I would learn from teachers who really specialize in what they do. Other students driven by the desire to perform would also surround and inspire me.

How did you research and ultimately select your college?

I had an alphabetized box of schools and I would research a new college every day after school during my junior year. I picked out 20 schools that I really liked and then started looking them up on their YouTube videos. YouTube helped me narrow down my options. I got down to my top six or seven and then went into detective mode. I looked up the school's reputation, their alumni, and how many people were getting jobs after graduation. I was down to three schools and visited Baldwin Wallace for my audition. I met the heads of the program and I knew it was the home for me. I was able to watch a master class and it was spectacular! An agent from New York was critiquing every student and offering advice on the spot, which impressed me.

What arts major are you studying?

I am a Music Theatre major. It has the music base that I love—and I get to act too. I always tell people I play pretend for a living, and it’s kind of true!

What was the application process to get in?

I had to send in my application and then sign up for an audition date. During my audition, the head of the program picked two out of the three songs I had prepared and I sang those. I also performed a monologue. They had current students who walked me through the entire process and gave me advice right on the spot, which made it a lot less stressful!

What advice do you offer students who want to attend a Performing & Visual Arts college?

Do it! Life is filled with creativity and being surrounded by others who are artistically minded inspires me to become more imaginative every day! As for the application process, don’t forget to show them how much you love what you do.

Your talent is unique so don't be afraid to share your talent!

How has your experience thus far shaped your future goals and career aspirations?

I had no idea how much this education would teach me about discipline throughout all of life. I have learned about business, marketing, and entrepreneurship, as well as how to be an excellent musician and actress. You have to have the ability to market yourself and foster your talent at the same time. Baldwin Wallace has not only helped me understand how this industry works, but has also taught me that working really hard every day will help me reach the highest stars.
