The MFA Acting Program at UT recruits actors every other year in odd-numbered years. The next class will enter in Fall 2009. Recruitment for this class will be in January and February of 2009.  Online applications for admission will be available in Fall 2008.

The MFA in Acting is a three-year conservatory training. We will invite eight actors to enter the MFA program in the 2009-2010 academic year. All students receive a full tuition waver, a yearly stipend of approximately $8000.00, and funds for study-travel in the U.S. and abroad.
