I am interested to know in why Emerson is your "dream school"?

Knowing nothing about Emerson, I am just interested to see what people look for in an undergrad theatre program?  And what about Emerson speaks to you?

While I do not attend Emerson, it was one of the schools I applied to and got in. I just graduated high school (a week ago) so I went through the process you will have to go through. If you have questions, send me a PM, I would be happy to help you out.

i visited Emerson and while i was there they were really supportive of there theatre program and seems to have really good alumni and job connection, plus a stong liberal arts curriculum. also, the city of boston has its own great qualities
