Interested in seeing The Theatre School and learning more about our programs and admissions process? The best way is to visit.
Information Sessions & Tours
Both undergraduate (BFA) and graduate (MFA) visits are scheduled online and are available throughout the year on most weekdays, with the exception of university holidays. Information sessions are led by a Theatre Admissions Counselor and include an overview of our training programs, production season, and application process. Current students lead tours of The Theatre School, including studios, workshops, classrooms, and performance spaces.

Debut DePaul
The Theatre School hosts open house programs called Debut DePaul that coincide with DePaul University's Fall Visit Days. Debut DePaul is specifically for students interested in pursuing a theatre major and offers information sessions about The Theatre School's application process, presentations on student life, tours, a demonstration class, and the opportunity to see an evening performance. Admissions interviews are available the next day for non-acting students who have submitted an admissions application and registered for their interview in advance.
Register: Friday Oct. 20 Debut DePaul Register: Friday Nov. 3 Debut DePaul
Students who attend Debut are also welcome to attend a Fall Visit Day the next day (October 21 or November 4) for a broader look at DePaul University. Register for a Fall Visit Day here.
Admitted Students Visits
Our Admitted Students Weekend is a
two day program in April for admitted BFA students and their families.
Students will observe classes, learn about housing, stay overnight with a
current student, tour our campus, see a Theatre School production, and
meet faculty, alumni, current students, and future classmates.
Admitted MFA students and BFA students who cannot attend the Admitted Students Weekend are invited to contact the Theatre Admissions Office to set up an individual visit day.
