Student
Responsibility to Keep Informed
The Department of Theater makes special demands on
students enrolled in the B.F.A. training programs because of the
professional nature of the programs and the demands of the profession. Concentration-specific rules and policies are in the Theater Department Student Handbook and Appendices including the Student Handbook Appendix for Acting Students, the Design and Student Handbook Appendix for Production and Design students (Costume, Set, & Lighting Designers, Costume Technicians, Technical Directors, & Stage Management), and the Dramaturgy and Playwrighting Appendix. Students are responsible for understanding
and following all rules and policies set forth in these documents, as well as
those in the undergraduate university catalog.
Program and Class Fees
Students
in acting and design are assessed professional program fees that
support professional training and career transition. Some courses
charge specific fees for tickets, models, or supplies. Should a student
leave or be dismissed from the program, all fees are nonrefundable.
Repeated Courses
Theater
arts B.F.A. students may repeat a liberal arts course taken at Rutgers

minor in theater arts to liberal arts students enrolled in the School
