My kid had to indicate a first and second choice. My understanding is that the teachers were also asked during the audition to indicate on the audition form if they would be willing to teach a particular student, should that student win admission. The teachers themselves do not see the student's first and second choice. The admissions dept matches them up based on their preferences, and the teacher's willingness and studio size.

I've known students who were admitted, but were assigned to study with a teacher that was not their first OR second choice - because that is who had studio room. Then the student had to decide if he was willing.

It seemed very fair, and anonymous.
