I very much would like to major in drama. However, I also want something
to fall back on. Does anybody know of a school with a well respected
drama program, with successful graduates, that also has many other
majors?
~I want to love but it comes out wrong. I want to live but I don't
belong. I close my eyes and see blood and roses~
~The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to talk,
mad to live, mad to be saved, desirious of everything at the same time.
The ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing but burn, burn, burn,
like fabulous yellow roman candles shooting like spiders across the sky
and in the middle you see the blue centerlight pop and everybody goes
wow~ |

First, ignore those who say "Yale." Well, not ignore them exactly,
because Yale's undergraduate Theater Studies major *is* unusually
varied in its options, but the fabled Yale School of Drama is a
*graduate* program.
Second, when you say "drama," do you mean straight drama acting or do
you also have MDT (Music Dance Theatre) programs as well? What about
film and television?
That said, the usual suspects that fit your criteria include NYU
(Tisch for drama, dance, and film/TV; Steinhardt for MDT and if you
want to teach/therapize with music/drama/dance), Northwestern, SUNY
Purchase, BYU (for MDT), UCLA, and USC.
The alternative to the above is to go to any college, major in what
you wish, do as much as you can in terms of on- and off-campus
productions, then do post-college work at the Juilliard, Yale Drama,
or AMDAs or the world.

On that note, see

for an article of mine from a year ago on a related topic.

I omitted Carnegie Mellon here by mistake.
