Jacisme:

Glad it was helpful. You couldn't find the 4-year schedule before because it wasn't posted until yesterday. I'm a bit slow with html skills. Need to hire Shauna. I'll post the other schedules (MT, ACT, DT, BA) today.

Again, not many differences between MT and MT/D. The "regular" MTs actually take almost the same amount of dance, they just start at the beginning level, whereas MTDs start at the Intermediate level or above. MTs are required to take more hours of voice (but MTD's typically take the same amount). MTs are required to take Combat (but MTD's typically elect to take it). MTs usually take two terms of Theatre History, while MTD's take one term of Theatre History and two briefer Dance History classes. That's it.

MTaussie:

You are way ahead of me. Normally we don't set those dates until July. But if we follow the same pattern we have for the last several years, then we would hold MT on-campus auditions in mid and late January, late February and early March: January 21 and 28, February 25 and March 4. Possibly March 11 as well. But I need to say that I can't promise that those will be the dates at this point. We need to evaluate our procedures after we get through this season.

We have considered the possibility of a fall audition date. But I'm reluctant to do that unless we can tell students their status, and we can't do that unless we're willing to offer early admission to some students. I'm not sure we want to get into that game, for the reasons I've outlined in the post on February 16.

Hope this helps.
