| Well, today is the day you can check application status on line. My D auditioned 2/29 and her status has now changed to "In Committee". So, I'm assuming everyone who has not been accepted or rejected at this point is "In Committee" awaiting the results of today's audition & follow-up meeting for final class selections. Anyone get a different admission status reading today? | |

| Unless something has changed at Elon, the online status check (at Ontrack on the Elon website) has nothing to do with the MT decision. At Elon, academic decisions are made independently of the MT decisions. For example, my daughter applied EA last year, so was in to the University in December, but not for MT. The status check says "accepted undecided MT" I think or something like that. All letters from the MT department in the past have said "this decision is dependent on your academic acceptance to Elon University" or something like that. Never heard of the online check saying "in committee". That's a new one! The last audition date at Elon is today. My daughter is helping with the dance audition which starts at 2:00, so if you are there and see a tiny Asian girl, say hello and that you know of her from CC. She won't be surprised!!! I imagine MT decisions will be made soon. Last year she received her acceptance phone call on March 7th (we'll never forget that date!!!) but the last audition last year was earlier than this year's. I expect phone calls will be made next week, but obviously I don't really KNOW anything about this year, just basing on last year's procedure.
Keeping fingers crossed for those of you waiting for good news.  | |

| Finally got logged in...using wrong user name. I forget my S goes by his middle name, but colleges always use the first. Yes, it does say "in committee" and undeclared music theatre major. | |

| Glad you were able to log in. My child who applied to the BFA in MT program has her status listed as "In Committee". So, maybe the admission's office puts the BFA kids "on hold" until they hear from those selecting the MT kids. Then after the admissions office gets that list, they check their grades, test scores, etc., to see if they are eligible academically.

| That is very interesting about the "in committee". Makes sense. I've just never heard of it before, but of course didn't have reason to be checking in March since she had already been admitted academically.
Hope you have great news soon. | |

| My s applied to Elon MT last year and got defered in December so we anxiously awaited his on line status. He also got a status of "in committee". It then said "accepted undeclared MT" > We mistakenly thought he was accepted to the program. We soon learned by letter he was not. The on line status refers only to acceptance into the college and has nothing to do with
the program itself. He still went to Elon because he loved it from the time he first set foot there. He has reauditioned for MT and Acting. We're waiting to hear. | |

| Quick status change!
I posted this morning that my D's status changed today to reflect "In Committee". Just for fun, I checked again...now it says, "Congratulations, you are admitted!"
I am assuming this means to the school itself...not to MT, but I'm REALLY HAPPY
(and surprised) with this update anyway! This whole process is sooo confusing...every school is different!
Did this change happen to others as well? | |

| Interesting that your son's status changed as well! Rarely did I look at the "Check Application Status" buttons on any websites during this whole process, because I never saw any change. I did, however, check Elon's on March 13...they said the final Application Status would be shown on the 14th, so I was just curious to see if it would be posted early. No, on the 13th, there was the same "File Complete" notation...then the morning of the 14, it was "In Committee"...then a few hours later, "Accepted". I have NO idea what that "In Committee" status for a little while was about. Oh, well, doesn't matter...
Yes, Georgia, now we just wait to see if they get into the MT program...at least they are cleared academically, so that is good.
The wait continues... | |
