Drama Colleges

what is the difference between a bachelor of fine arts and bachelor of performing arts?

i am looking for a college to go to. cool, huh? i live in the US and am considering going out of the country. i want to major in musical theatre. i want a BFA or bachelor of fine arts. i found a school in australia that i think i like, but it says it offers a bachelor of performing arts in musical theatre. or BPA. are these similar? or is a BPA more like a BA where not everything studied has to do with what your major is. help?

1. A Bachelor of Fine Arts is general "art - painting etc" - performing arts is drama.
