| Mango, we heard on the grapevine that this year, CMU only took two or three girls for MT, as special situations last year meant that certain slots were already filled. For instance, we heard that one girl who was admitted last year couldn't come because she was involved (sadly) in that Minnesota bridge collapse. Another girl enrolled but got sick and had to leave, but thankfully is healthy again and can enroll in the fall. I also know that one lovely and talented young lady was offered admission from precollege last year. |

| We know one of the girls who got in and she is having to choose between CMU and another program....So, you D might get off the waitlist!
Good luck with it all! | |

| waitlist at CMU acting vs UCLA
My son got accepted into UCLA's theatre program and waitlisted at CMU. He's really confused and so are we. I think if he would have gotten in at the end of March he'd have picked CMU but we checked out UCLA, it seems great and moved forward with that decision. Then-We found out Friday he was on the priority waitlist. It is crazymaking.
What are the chances of getting in?
Thoughts about making this decision?
thanks for any help | |

| Don't know how many accepted but I know 1 person who declined the offer. Someone should be off the waitlist soon. | |

| I know for sure that at least one boy and one girl will not be attending CMU, they have already committed to other schools...so I'm sure spaces will open for those on the waitlist. | |

| Blueroses:
Is the girl you know who did not accept at CMU an MT? Just curious, as my D is on priority wait for acting.
MangoLover, are you on wait for MT or acting, or possibly both?
Hope everyone hears good news next week! | |

| I believe there was a male acting student who chose Juilliard over CMU, and I think I read that actingmom's D chose another school. So, some Wait List students will be very happy soon! |
