| Is it a good program for prospective students that are interested in CM to attend? Definitely. It teaches audition techniques, etc.
When will they know if they're accepted? I believe pre-college notified mid-May?
How many students are accepted into the musical theater program? Over 100 Theatre/MT students attended
Will college credits be received? No. Only AP students receive credit
Does the pre-college program reflect what the real curriculum is all about? It was very full and intense. Some teachers are not CMU teachers – one was from Point Park and she was excellent
CMU is my first choice school. If one is accepted into another summer program before CM contacts you, is there a way to find out your acceptance before the paper work for the other program is due? I don’t recall anyone being turned down from the summer program. Maybe someone else knows differently on CC?
When attending CMU pre-college, what shall students bring with them for both classes and end of the program audition? Comfortable clothes, dancewear, a nice outfit to audition in, dressy outfit for Clipper ship night. Bring music you’d like to work on…You’ll get a list with everyting you need.
Will tap be a part of the curriculum? Tap was optional in the second half.
How much are private voice lessons? $250 for ½ hour lesson each week – Go for the hour if you can swing it.

Are there practice rooms for pre-college students? Yes
What is there to do in the PA area? SHOP, eat, buses are free to pre-college students…they shop on the Waterfront and EVERYWHERE |
