According to the students of NYFA, the acting course is intense and quite challenging. But the best part is the teachers are motivating, and extremely helpful. The staff expects their students to be very professional and they will treat you like a professional actor not like a student, which is a good thing. One disadvantage as an international student has to go through is that US citizen gets an unfair advantage of giving audition for paid gigs and get paid, but in case an international student gets selected in an audition, it’s a different ballgame.
