I don't think so. Because if you're going to be an actress, then you get really rich. So you don't need a college education to get you thriugh life if you choose to be an actress. But, having college education would REALLY HELP in being an actress because it will save you if you decide later that being an actress is just not right for you. You don't have to get to the hassle of having to go to school again. And it will look nice on your bio-data or something.
Nothing really beats good education.

No, but a lot of actors/actresses do go to acting schools. They will help you define your talents and learn new and different techniques used for different styles of drama. Such as stage acting compared to screen acting. Many well know celebrity's have college degrees though. They recognized Early the struggles of the profession. Also many get bored or tired of acting and move on to production or directing, which would be another reason for college courses.

No you do not need to go to College to be an actress, though the profession is tough, so if it doesn't work out, then you need your education to fall back on!
So study hard & act in your spare time till you graduate.
Good Luck!

Although a college degree isn't mandated to become an actress it is advisable. That way when your acting career hits the skids you have something to fall back on.

You don't have to but it is an advantage. Many people prefer to go to a performance school because your talent becomes so diverse that you can adapt to any role needed. I would have thought a school that specialises in acting, like (the Italia Conti Academy stage school) where Martine McCutcheon went to rather than college as they can only teach you so much.

You don't have to but it is a good way to get yourself an agent and get noticed.
Keep an eye on the Stage for notifications of open auditions that anyone can go to ... it may be a good starting point for your career.

No, college is not necessary. Not all actors went to college. However, you HAVE to take acting lessons. If you have not started acting claseses, find a teacher.
