My D auditioned and was accepted to Point Park last year. On her audition day, there were about 35 kids and of those, about 12 made the callback. At the callback, she was asked to sing a different song than what she had used at her audition. They flipped through her book and chose a song. This also happened to another student we know. The whole group also played some theater games (not sure what that means--sorry). She had a great time and received an acceptance about a week later with a nice talent award. If you do not get a callback, you will not be accepted according to the information given before the audition day began. Also, even if you get a callback, it doesn't mean you will be accepted. My D was in contact with one of the other auditioning kids who was in the callback, yet was then not accepted to the MT program. But my understanding is that you have to get a callback to be considered. Made for kind of an ugly day actually, since parents and students all had to wait around after the original audition, for the callback list to go up. Then so many kids didn't get callbacks, and it was awkward since they had all been together all morning bonding. Personally not my favorite audition experience as a parent!
