Berklee College of Music Early Action for Fall 2024 Admission

What did she audition for? My daughter auditioned for guitar.

I am also wondering this. Are they sending out acceptances first? and then rejections? or is there not method?

What time of the day does Berklee send acceptances. My daughter’s friend got his acceptance a few days ago at 12am. My daughter auditioned November 13th and anxiously waiting. A few of her friends have been accepted. Do they release acceptances before rejections?

My kid got their acceptance late at night, like midnight. Their friends who auditioned at the same time got their acceptances that night too. So maybe it’s done in batches? I’m sorry I don’t know how it works. Hoping you get good news soon. So nerve-wracking to wait.

My son auditioned that same day too. Voice.

The official response was:

“Thank you for contacting Berklee Admissions and your patience as we received a high volume of inquires. Admissions decisions will be issued electronically on January 31st for early action. Please let us know if you have any additional questions.”

So I guess we wait :crossed_fingers::crossed_fingers:.

Thank you so much for contacting admissions! It is helpful information. I do wonder why some people received earlier decisions though. But yes, we wait! Good luck to everyone!

That is a good question…maybe based on audition times and instrument? Not sure. Mine did guitar on December 2 in Baltimore. I am still going to have him check the portal each day….it’s nerve-wracking! Good luck to your kiddo!!

We are anxiously awaiting a decision but have received several emails congratulating him on completing the audition and requesting him to complete the checklist of items in the portal. The email also says that if he has already completed them, then they are still processing. He’s had these completed since late October, but a little part of me is freaking out because he’s received this email 3 or 4 times. He’s emailed admissions just to double check, but will be so glad when he gets a decision.

My son has emailed admissions a few times because he keeps getting emails saying something is missing from his checklist but it’s not. I keep hoping that is not affecting their timeline on his decision. He also has gotten several other emails about applying! I know it must be nerve-wracking for him every time he sees another email from the school!

It is SO nerve wracking!! My son emailed them too. If you hear anything back, let us know and we will do the same. Best of luck to your son

so interesting how they notify some in December and some (obviously) in January… :woman_shrugging:

I agree. Have y’all heard back yet?

My son is one of the kids who auditioned in early December and got notified of admission in mid-December, but one of his friends (on a different instrument) auditioned just a little later in December and still hasn’t heard. So anxious for him, and everyone else!! :crossed_fingers:

I have had indigestion for a month :rofl::rofl::rofl:

Do you mind if I ask what instrument he auditioned with?

My son auditioned on piano.
