Have You Considered Alternatives?

Should I assume you will soon be graduating high school? Have you considered a theater or drama major in college? This experience should prepare you for more career choices later on...

Just a thought.

Okay... So Do It!

Speak with your college/career guidance counsellor at school and tell him/her of your ambitions. Choose a program and set this as your goal.

It may be late for fall admissions, but in the meantime consider working with a local theater group in your community (of course, I have no idea whether your community has such a group, but most do).

If expenses are a problem, explore every possibility. Once you gain admission, discuss loans and/or scholarships.

If this has been your dream, don't let it fade...

I agree with elp. Theater is

I agree with elp. Theater is a good means of entry into modeling and also screen acting. Many people wind up doing all of them.

Have you had portfolio shots done yet? If you don't have an agent willing to pay for them (always good, but not necessary), you can fund them yourself and have a set done fairly cheaply. Absolutely essential if you want to break into any of those three businesses. Actually, professional photos are necessary for anything that puts you in the public eye (I had to get them done), but for modeling...duh.

I have a couple other things you can do, too. I need to dig them up though. PM me.
