hey andrea,

i too was deferred. i was so crushed because my best friend was accepted into their creative writing program on the same day. (i also auditions for a BFA in acting)

my other college choices are
Univeristy of Conencticut (state school)
Skidmore
Boston Universiy

i had more, but i cut them out of the list cause of various reasons.

anyway. good luck!!!!!!!!! i'm pretty much dying inside until april haha

My son was accepted EA today for the BFA Performing Arts department in Stage/Production Management.

How did you hear from Emerson--on-line or by mail? Thanks.

Big white envelope came in the mail today.

im still waiting for my letter...

One of my friends got her letter today (for creative writing, though). aaaugh, Emerson is the only EA school out of four I haven't heard from!

i can't handle waiting!!!!

i've heard two sets of information- two of my friends called and asked why some people have heard and others have not (i know of three boys accepted into BFA Musical Theatre and have heard of NO other letters being received)

so one friend was told that all letters were mailed on wednesday
the other was told that they were mailed in three batches- on thursday, friday, and saturday

when i asked the second friend if maybe those were acceptances, deferrals, and rejections, he didn't think so- he thought they were random because he was told that 5 boys and 5 girls would be accepted

yet the day that i auditioned, they told us it would be 6-8 people

so clearly there are differing bits of information being passed around!!

im basically just holding my breath and coming up with a million ideas of what's going to happen to me!!

good luck to all! (unless you're a girl and you're going to take my spot lol)

well we all live in different parts of the country so im hoping that since im kinda far its just taken a while... i will be sitting by by mailbox like a hawk today though lol
good luck rox! Yes i am a girl but im not musical theatre... so we can mutually cross our fingers lol

roxinabox · 12-17-2007, 10:24 AM

hahha yayyy good luck to you!

ChellyBelly42 · 12-17-2007, 04:02 PM

I got my letter today! It was a rejection, though, so that exclamation point is more in relief that the waiting is over, haha.

roxinabox · 12-17-2007, 05:39 PM

...yup...me too

_simplywicked · 12-17-2007, 06:58 PM

i hate to say this... but acceptances always come first. even though emerson says they do not. I had this experience last year, where my best friend recieved her acceptance letter about 4 days before i recieved my rejection letter.

soulmisnomer,

Just remember that some departments are harder to get in than others.

Good luck to you! I'm from Glastonbury myself.

Patsygirl · 12-23-2007, 05:34 PM

yeah i got rejectd. o well, everything happens for a reason. i already found a new favorite school so i guess i didnt love Emerson as much as i thought i did
