Academics

You really have to be dedicated and put in the effort yourself. No one else can rehearse for you or get your work done. Because this is a performance school most of your grades throughout the semester will be based on performances. They aren't looking for perfection, but they are looking to hard work, dedication, and improvement.

The performing classes will rock your world, and it's the greatest feeling ever. Academia here is wonderful as well, although sometimes the workload is daunting, especially with outside rehearsals you need for performance classes.

This school pushes you past your limits at times. You definitely have an overstuffed Thanksgiving plate and your time management skills will definitely need to kick in right away once you get to school.

This place has amazing teachers. I was amazed by how many celebrities have gone here. AMDA makes me want to graduate sooner than 2016.

The classes seem easy at first, but you have to keep up with the work load or you will get lost and have too much to do. The teachers are wonderful to be taught under and work with.

You will be required to take 5 classes per semester (15 credits) and you aren't allowed to miss 5 classes or you fail the class which includes being sick.
