Undergraduate Actors

You do not need to audition for a BA in Theatre. The undergraduate major is declarable at any stage of a student’s tenure at UT, however, students are strongly encouraged to declare their Theatre major as soon as possible — the sooner the department knows of your interest, the sooner you can get involved in productions!
