American Musical & Dramatic Academy Summary

I understand the level of dedication and hard work that must be given by the students however, for someone who is not from the country, the tuition is really expensive and sometime is a headache indeed.

Tuition here is a LOT. At the beginning I felt like I should of just went to a normal university, but truth of the matter is this school offers majors in our passions and BFA's which means we get to get a degree and no other school offers that. We learn so much that you have no choice but to Be prepared when you step out into the world and get ready to audition and land parts. So yes this education is worth it. The financial aid people are ready to help to. No one here wants to see anyone have to put there dreams on hold because of money.

We don't have sports, but we do have a lot of clubs that you may be interested in. Everything from body classes in the morning like yoga, and conditioning, to dance classes that students lead etc. I love the fact that I as a student can request reaching my own class if I want to. Our library is pretty amazing. It holds all kinds of plays, and music for musical theatre students. All in all minus a few minute flaws our campus flows pretty nicely and you can find pretty much everything you need here.

The fact that this is a performing arts school is amazing. You don't feel afraid to be different here because we're all artist. Everyone is accepting. The campus life isn't so bad. The piazza is my favorite. Being in sunny L.A. It's nice to be able to sit out there and study and what not. I love the fact that your teachers are probably going to be the ones to give you your first jobs, so it's wise to aim to be a great student. You never know who your teacher knows.

The computer labs and networks aren't too bad. They definitely work about 90% of the time. The printer is used a lot so it's best not to wait the day of to print something because odds are it won't work. The wifi in the dorms are horrible. Which is why it gets an A-.
