Class of 2019 (the journey begins) - Sharing,Venting, Etc

My S was invited for 2/27 but had to change to 2/20 due to anther audition already scheduled.

BAL to all the Elon auditioners! Wonderful program. Beautiful campus. We were disappointed when our D was artistically rejected after her 10/31 audition. It will be interesting to see if they keep these auditions as small as the ones in the fall which were 13 and 13.

Stay at the Acorn Inn, it’s absolutely delightful and they will spoil you! Walking distance to everything. Beautiful campus.

Acorn Inn is booked for 1/27 weekend. :frowning: I tried to book it a few days ago.

D is at Elon as well on 2/27, although my husband is accompanying her. He will need a little “sherpa traning” for that one!

Did you read the fine print that we could be at Elon till 10pm that night? yikes.

Oh, and Point Park is making academic accept. phone calls today. Artistic is still a “week or so” out due to “technical difficulty”.

Really? they are calling people for academic acceptance? That seems unusual.

I did read that @pghmusician. Ugh. Bringing lots to read, and my ipad, and the charger for my ipad, and maybe a deck of cards. LOOOONNNGGGG day.

Hartt decisions are supposed to come out today for anyone who participated in the early audition. Has anyone heard anything? My S will be heading out to the ELON audition as well - super excited - have heard so many great things about the program and the campus!

@pghmusician‌, my daughter was academically accepted to PPU in November. Do they not have rolling admissions? I can’t keep track of the details of each school anymore :open_mouth:

@wearecollege You’re right it is. my bad. Just thought it was strange to get a call for academic. My S got all excited at first.

Some schools have students call after academic admit as part of their “marketing” to get your child to choose their school
 what the poor unfortunate student or admissions advisor doesn’t understand is that until you have all your artistic decisions in hand, all the marketing and phone calls and pretty handwritten notes are just noise.

Hi everyone, I’ve been lurking for a while but I thought with the direction the conversation was taking I might participate :slight_smile: I got my Elon email on 1/13, so I’ve officially passed all my prescreens, which is a huge relief. U of Michigan, Penn State, Otterbein, Ithaca, and now Elon.
Who all will I be seeing at the 2/20 Elon audition?

Congrats & welcome!!!

CCM has some decisions made. D auditioned 1/10. I just looked at Check My Status. Unfortunately it’s a no for her.

Darn. I’m sorry, MTRaleighmom. That’s the part of this that is hard to relate to unless it has happened to you. Chin up. Fingers crossed for some good news soon.

Well said @TNMTDAD rejections STINK! But all these kids really need is 1 acceptance. :smile:

My daughter received rejections from every school she auditioned at except her #1 which she was wait listed. By the time she was offered a spot off the wait list she had fallen in love with her safety school. She couldn’t be happier. They really do end up where they are supposed to be. Hang in there.

Hello CC Friends, Is anyone else at CMU this weekend?

D was wait-listed at PPU. She’s pretty happy with this result since this was an early audition that she didn’t feel entirely prepared for :slight_smile:
