<p>Thanks for your help!</p>
<p>During auditions last year they made the students sign-in. The order that they signed in was the order they took them for their audition. Luckily, my daughter was able to sign in early which gave her an early audition time. We were finished by about 1:00 or 2:00 and were able to get on the road for the 6 hour trip home. Not sure if they will take you in order this year, but it is worth getting there early and checking. Good luck. It was a very warm and welcoming environment and very well run day.</p>
<p>Hey everybody! I auditioned on 1/24. Does anybody know when they will mail you decisions yet?</p>
<p>mtlifeforme, my son auditioned at Shenandoah 2/6 and got his answer the following week. If you haven’t heard from them yet, and the decision is not posted online, I recommend that you give them a call.</p>
<p>thanks. Yeah at my audition they said you would hear in about 4 weeks for an defer/rejection but if you were accepted it would take longer because then they would send you for an academic review. But as always this stuff is never set in stone right?</p>
