M.F.A. in Dramatic Art

专业介绍

Generally, only first-year applicants are considered for admission. Candidates should check with the department for admission information pertaining to their specific area of specialization (i.e., acting, technical production, or costume production).

All applicants must meet admission requirements established by The Graduate School of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Each area of specialization within the department requires additional application materials. In the costuming and technical areas, applicants are required to submit portfolios. Candidates should check with the department for further information as to what each area entails. All acting candidates must audition. In addition to on-campus auditions, the department holds auditions every other year in January in New York and Chicago and attends the URTA auditions in Philadelphia, Chicago and Atlanta. Applications must be received by January 10 to be considered.

Each student is responsible for becoming familiar with the general regulations of The Graduate School and particularly with the dates indicated on the calendar for the academic year. This information is contained elsewhere in the Graduate Catalog. Please note that, due to the nature of the professional training programs, the calendar for graduate students in the Department of Dramatic Art will not always coincide with that of the University. Graduate students in the department are frequently required to work on productions during University-scheduled holidays.

A limited number of graduate appointments are available in the department. Appointments are presently awarded in the areas of acting, technical production, and costume production in support of courses. All appointments involve instructional or laboratory supervisory responsibility.
