Admission Pathway

No audition or portfolio is required

The current Department of Dance, Music and Theatre program and admissions pages do not publish a separate theatre prescreen, interview, or audition requirement

Transfer Pathway

CSUCI publishes a 2026–2027 two-year transfer roadmap for the Theatre and Performance Studies, B.A. that assumes General Education and lower-division major requirements are complete. It maps the remaining upper-division Theatre and Performance Studies coursework across four semesters for transfer entrants.
