Interested in Grad School? Try Ohio State!

By October 30, 2019News

Hello All,

Higher education is expensive and often graduate (MA, MFA, PhD) programs do not prepare you for the shifting and changing marketplace centered on  education and the arts. I can attest that Ohio State is different. They are leading the way in preparing graduate students for Theatre. They have amazing opportunities and initiatives for their students. If you are considering grad school, give them a look.
