That depends a lot on the type of performing arts you're interested in.
If you interested in acting, some of the top program are:
- American Conservatory Theater in San Francisco
- The Actor's STudio at Pace University, in New York
- California Institute of the Arts School of Theater (CalArts)
- Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburg
If you're interested in dance, some programs to look into are:
- Juiliard
- State University of New York, Purchase
- NYU's Tisch School of the Arts
- Fordham University's program with the Ailey school
- Indiana University at Butler
If you're interested in voice, the options are very different for classical vs. popular music. Some programs for popular music include:
- University of Southern California in Los Angeles
- Temple University in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania (more for jazz)
- Keep in mind that some vocal departments are located in music departments and others are in theater departments
