    Everyone makes it into Barbizon. Just read the transcript from a recent Dateline show Chris Hansen did and watch the video clips on both pages

    http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/30156875/ns/dateline_n...

    "Do we want every child that comes through the door to enroll in Barbizon? Absolutely. For one, we're a business. And every business, I don't care who you are… you need revenues."

    If you are serious about modeling you don't need to go to modeling school, in fact it can work against you. Many of the big agencies automatically reject anyone who went to a modeling school as they feel the poses and walks are better suited to pageants than runway and it's too difficult to unteach the habits. All you need to do is send in a headshot and full body shot to agencies like Elite or Wilhelmina and they'll sign you if they think you have the right look. No school in the world can make you taller, give your body model proportions or change your facial features - which is all an agency is interested in

    If you are interested in acting, find an actual theater company that offers classes, join drama club, do school plays, ask your drama teacher for recommendations of the best acting schools/coaches near you - most of which will cost A LOT less than $2000. You can take a 10 week class at some of the top acting schools in NYC for $500
