I never even heard of a dramatic advisor. We have been just doing everything on our own. My son applied to colleges, worked on his monologues on his own and went out and did his best. He is a talented actor and a terrific student. He got into several excellent schools and was rejected by several excellent schools. I now know so much more about the complexities of the audition process that thankfully I didn’t know before or I would have been nuts about all of this for a longer period of time. I’m sure an advisor would be helpful but I think after he sees NU he will be able to make a decision. I have been enjoying reading about other people’s experiences and stories. They have been very informative, helpful and entertaining. I give any kid who subjected themselves to this process so much credit. Regardless of who got in where, they have demonstrated maturity and perseverance and guts!!! Good luck to all!
