Single Mom. Money scarce. Got all of the paperwork (cyber-paper) as soon as it opened Oct 1st. We hear that it's all about what happens in the audition room. Is it? Reading in NYTimes yesterday about Atlantic Studio struggling so and other historic wonderful artistic beacons to the actor in NYC struggling similarly to simply exist brought this to the forefront of my mind.
We are feeling the strain this year at holiday time. Finished with the early round and gearing up for January and February. I'm sure this question has been addressed here at some point but I'm wondering how much this is weighed? Thinking of NYU and the humongous cost (reflected in tuition) keeping it's 7 studio's going. NYU/Tisch (among several others) is high on my Acting daughters list. Surely, as with all things, it varies greatly from school to school. Is it, though, considered when making an "artistic" acceptance? Any thoughts or wisdom on this?
I suppose it doesn't help to perseverate and what will be will be but financial concerns loom large these days.
