Drama division

The drama division was founded in 1968.[12] Those who complete the four-year program receive either a Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA) degree, a Master of Fine Arts (MFA) degree (starting from Fall 2012), or a diploma.[13][14] Each year's class is identified by a group number: Group 1 started in 1968 and graduated in 1972;[15] Group 54 includes students completing their fourth year in 2025.[16]

All Juilliard Drama groups from 1 to 50 and alumni of the Playwrights and Directors programs were catalogued for its anniversary in 2017 here.[17] Notable students are reflected below with their group number and graduation year (or years of attendance if they did not graduate).

Playwrights program

The Lila Acheson Wallace American Playwrights Program is a one-year graduate level program in Juilliard's drama division. Selected playwrights invited to complete a second year may earn an Artist Diploma in Playwriting.[63]

The program began as a residency rather than a course of study until it took its current form in 1993. It was directed by John Guare and Terrence McNally for the first year, followed by Marsha Norman and Christopher Durang until Durang's retirement in 2016. He was succeeded by David Lindsay-Abaire, and Tanya Barfield succeeded Norman in 2020.[17]

Directors program

The Andrew W. Mellon Artist Diploma Program for Theatre Directors was a two-year graduate fellowship that began in 1995 (expanded to three years in 1997) and was discontinued from autumn 2006.

Music division

The music division offers a four-year Bachelor of Music (BM) degree, a Master of Music (MM) degree, a Doctor of Musical Arts (DMA) degree, an Artist Diploma (AD), or a diploma. In prior years it also awarded B.S. and M.S. degrees.
