<p><font size="3">Course offerings in theater develop students in two ways. First,
as an integral part of a liberal arts education; the courses sharpen insights,
perceptions, and creative thought processes in the area of dramatic thinking.
Second, the theater curriculum provides students with the rigorous training
of an artistic discipline. The value of this process lies in the direct expression
of one's self as an instrument—emotional, physical, and vocal. Students
in the theater program realize their education in a fully personal sense through
theoretical, laboratory, and experiential work. As a result of this twofold
approach, students majoring in theater arts are prepared with the broadest possible
base for continued artistic development and future career opportunities.</font></p>

<p><b><font size="+1"><a name="about"></a>About Rutgers</font></b>
<p><font size="3">Set in an attractive campus adjacent to the Benjamin Franklin
Bridge, Rutgers-Camden offers a diverse curriculum designed to provide students
with</font> <font size="3">a strong liberal arts background as well as extensive
knowledge in specialized fields. The college offers major programs in twenty-three
undergraduate and several graduate disciplines. </font>
<p><font size="3">Rutgers-Camden has the advantage of being located in a geographic
area that provides one of the richest heritages for the study of music in the
United States. The major concert halls in Philadelphia, New York, and Washington
DC, as well as major research libraries found not only at Rutgers, but also
University of Pennsylvania and Princeton University, are frequently used by
students for research and enrichment purposes.<br>

<p><b><font size="+1"><a name="admission"></a>Admission to Rutgers</font></b>
<p><font size="3">Applicants are evaluated by the Committee on Admissions on the
basis of several criteria, including high school academic record, courses taken,
quality of work, trend of grands, and rank in class. The committee considers
the results of the Scholastic Aptitude Test of the College Entrance Examination
Board, which is required of all applicants except those who have been out of
high school for two or more years or transfer with 12 or more credits from another
college or university. </font>
<p><font size="3">In addition, the committee welcomes recommendations from faculty,
principals, and guidance counselors, and is interested in the applicant's personal
characteristics, motivation, maturity, and potential as a contributor to the
college community. </font>
<p><font size="3">Because admission to the college is based on academic criteria,
the Music Programt does not conduct formal auditions. However, applicants are
urged to call the program chair to arrange an interview to discuss academic
and career planning. </font>

the financial aid office.
