It may surprise some fans of David Boreanaz to realize that the prolific actor is not actually classically trained. In fact, according to a report written in Fuse, an Ithaca College publication (Boreanaz's alma mater), the "Angel" star only took one acting class when he attended the school, Introduction to Acting. During his time at Ithaca, he seemed to be much more focused on what went on "behind the camera," graduating in 1991 with a degree in cinema and photography, per Fuse. He also focused on intramural sports, playing softball, basketball, and football, a hobby that would contribute to his eventual success.
Upon graduation, Boreanaz decided to give Los Angeles a try and moved out to the Golden State, hoping to use his degree to break into the film industry in some way. However, what befell him was the typical story of struggling filmmaker/aspiring actor, and he got by "by working various odd jobs (painting houses, parking cars, handing out towels at a gym) and acting whenever he could find a job (paying or not)," reported Fuse. Eventually, he landed a guest stint on "Married...With Children," though doors didn't really open up for him until he was discovered in sort of an odd way.
