Here are a few comments from those who have completed the Ensemble Training Intensive:
"This morning I sent off my acceptance to the M.F.A. program at Rutgers University in New Jersey. I received a compliment at the audition; they appreciated that I was able to have full presence on the stage. I think that's as much a tribute to Freehold as it is to me—it wouldn't have been said had I not gotten the training I did. Four years ago, I was ready to give up acting for good. Now, I can't imagine who I'd be without it. With all my heart, thank you."

"The Ensemble Training Intensive program is a great one! Anyone who really does the work will have all one needs to stand above the crowd. Confidence is the only tool the training can't give you, but knowing you have everything else in your acting kit should boost your confidence to high heaven. Out here [in Los Angeles] you'll need it. Freehold will give you all the rest. I do feel truly blessed to have been a part of the organization. I can never thank Freehold enough."
