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)

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

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.
