| Auditions seem to be king for music programs. My kids attended a high school that was not only known for its academics but had one of the top musical programs in the country. We had a guy who was not a standout academically. I would be surprised if his GPA was even a 2.7. However, he had a KILLER voice and was in our all state choir. By the way, being a stand out at our highschool, who was known to have some top notch talent, wasn't easy. He even was a football player.
He got into CCM with a full ride despite his academic deficiencies. Thus, a killer audition can mean almost everything in music and voice performance at least at CCM.
Interestingly, he almost flunked out. I think they gave him another chance , and he will graduate. |
