| Nate, I just answered your question on the Syracuse thread asking the same thing of that school. I am happy to try to help but you should not rely on a message board for this sort of important, as well as basic information. For all of your schools, you should be reseraching them in depth online and obtaining hardcopy materials and contacting them with further questions of this nature. The questions you are asking are RIGHT on their materials.
AT Emerson, no you do not have to be accepted before you audition. The academic accceptance comes as one package with the BFA acceptance (exception is an EA applicant, after auditioning, can be acceptd to Emerson, but deferred until April for the BFA decision). At Emerson, unlike at Syracuse, you have to send in an APPPLICATION before being allowed to make an audition appointment. At Syracuse, you can make the audition appointment before mailing in your application. Neither school does an academic acceptance prior to auditions, or separately from the overall acceptance package. |
