Because programs are so varied, we don't have a specification for when a student letters in Theatre. The most common use I've heard about in my years at EdTA is that teachers award letters when a student earns the Honor Thespian rank (60 points = 600 hours of quality work). Of course, National and International Honor Thespian letters are awarded at the appropriate point totals of 120 and 180. The Best Thespian letter is almost always awarded to a graduating senior.

I don't think there's an actual requirement. In my program you earn your letter after 30 points. At 60 points you become an honor thespian and earn the honor cords for graduation.

I was wondering if anyone knows how many points a student thespian needs in order to actually get a letterman's jacket and letter? I know 60 points equals becoming an honor thespian but I can't find any requirements for the jacket.
