| Ms. Bagwell,
I would like to add my thanks to NMR's. It was gracious of you to explain your policies in such detail.
Having said that, I must tell you that I think it's completely wrong of UofA to hold auditions for admission freshman year. Your program sounds much more similar to those that admit students to the BFA program at the end of sophomore year.
Unless a student is cutting classes, not participating, etc., I believe the university has an obligation to provide training to those they accepted by audition. That's just my opinion ... others may disagree. But, I would never permit (i.e. finance) my student to attend the program described above, sorry.
