Coursework
Focused professional actor training
Students accepted into the Foundation in Acting program will join other aspiring actors accepted into the same years cohort. Together, this cohort will progress through specialized courses designed specifically for Hawai‘i Conservatory of Performing Arts (HCPA) students.
Students who complete these courses, and therefore graduate from the Foundation in Acting program, may matriculate to several of East 15’s BA programs with dedicated scholarships of $5000 per annum (available only to HCPA grads), entering as a Junior, with only two years of training remaining to complete their BA.
