<p>maggie, I’ve been so wrapped up in trying to get her application completed and deal with the audition scheduling that I never even asked what they do about decisions!</p>
<p>It is true that they won’t schedule the audition until you have an acceptance from the University. And even though we missed the EA deadline by a hair (scores weren’t in on time), they did say that they’ll process everything on a rolling basis right away after they notify the EAs and that we should hear sometime in January. </p>
<p>The reason why I needed to deal with their audition even hypothetically is because we travel from a big distance and really need to do our NYC auditions in one long weekend, which unfortunately can’t be their “official” weekend. We really appreciate when any school that doesn’t travel itself will accommodate private appointments with kids who come from far away.</p>
<p>The Dept head was very nice about giving us an idea when he might be free the weekend we will be in the area, and if she gets into the school we’ll call him and confirm the appointment. Beyond that I don’t know what will happen!</p>
<p>There is a New Paltz student who posts on CC sometimes named whitty; you could PM him if you can’t get an answer from the school.</p>
