Hi All! Sorry for the delay in updating the latest results. Things have been crazy lately, but my daughter had her Juilliard audition (and callback!) over the weekend, and now we are finally DONE with auditions and just have to wait on acceptances/merit. I’ve gotten several updates, and I’ve also added some scholarships that my daughter was awarded prior to auditioning, just to have it all in one place. Looking back at last year’s thread, it looks like a lot of acceptances were released between 3/15 - 4/1, so we’re in the final stretch! I’ll continue to update as people get additional acceptances and merit offers.
Hopefully I’ve gotten all of the updates consolidated into this thread. If I missed anyone, please let me know.
