I second the back up plan post!!!

I have lots of friends who don't know what they are going to do, and it really sucks...have one school (not a bunch, but one) you KNOW you will get into, and the rest can be the risky reaches that most good MT or theatre schools are.

But on that note, I also want to add this-

DO NOT LET THOSE NUMBERS GET YOU DOWN
I did. I have an inferiority complex and refused to audition to more that 3 programs because I didn't think that I could do it. And with the odds, I just got depressed and gave up. I didn't think I was good enough to stand up to those numbers, that I didn't have enough experience, that I wasn't pretty enough and with the politics from a small town, I got a lot of slack for even thinking for a second I might be good enough, so I didn't tell them (directors, most fellow classmates) that I was even trying, and I was embaressed. But now I made it past the cut in one of the best acting conservatories in the country, and now I have confidence and I know I am good enough...I'm lucky that I had a little fate on my side senoir year, or else I would be sad and upset doing what ever it is I would be doing...

So don't think you can't do it!!!!
