@DramaRama Thank you so much! And yes, absolutely, the same thing happened to us. Syracuse was on the very bottom of her list because of the weather – until she went through the audition process, at which point it immediately rose to the top of the list.
@MTMOM17 – Well… Let’s hope today becomes an EVEN BETTER day for you. Although… what a set of incredible choices you are facing!
LOL, that’s very kind of you @DramaRama! :-*
Did anyone else’s child audition for MT at American University? Found out via portal D was accepted academically but nothing in the mail yet. Wondering if anyone had their artistic decision yet or if it’s an all or nothing school, etc.
@MomofJ5 My son is going to the “Own the Dome” event as well! He is already committed to SU for Sound Recording Technology (he is my non-MT kid - D is a Jr. at Hartt) - he was ED. My D’s good friend is a Jr. MT there and had had a terrific experience.
This is so funny. This year, I don’t have a kid going through this process, but my two best friends are. One of them is pretty sure where her D will go, my other one, still waiting for Hartt and Syr, and I am vigilant here…Even when they are not my own children, I feel I am getting nauseated with this wait. C’mon Syracuse, send me good news today!!! (breath in, breath out!)
@DramaRama I am anxiously awaiting Syracuse too for 2 of my son’s friend’s. The wait is killing me and they are not even my kids.
Does anyone know much about Miami? I’m contrasting it withSyracuse. (S applied for Acting, but interested in MT comments too).
We have friends with kids in Miami, and they are very happy.
@MomofJ5 my younger D (who is not in MT) is a freshman at Miami, so if you have any questions about the school in general, I will be more than happy to help!
@DramaRama that is what has me thinking - my daughter went to Syracuse excited about their program and 2 hours after getting there said she didn’t even want to audition. But we made her since we drove 7 hours. Haha! after the audition she said she would never go there even if it was the only school that accepted her! So they were our first elimination. You never know…
@MTdreamz Had a very similar situation with my D with another “top” school. Stepped foot on the campus, interacted with a few professors and was like…”yeah, no…I don’t see myself here.”
My D just received an email from Syracuse. It’s a no. She handled it well. She is so strong! At least we know and can move on. She has an audition tomorrow at UCF and still waiting to hear from Pace.
@mandidnam My D got a no from Syracuse today too.
GL at UCF. My D auditioned at UCF last month. We liked the school and the kids! Break legs!
We are still waiting to hear from Pace, UCF, Florida Southern, Molloy/CAP 21 (and Ball State, where she’s now wait-listed)
@MThopeful2022 yea. My D Loved PP but her friend auditioned with them at NY unifieds and said they were not nice and wouldn’t go there. Crazy how different the experience was. But we were on campus…
@MTMOM17 Thank you. We are excited about UCF. My D has been accepted to Florida Southern already. We live in Lakeland so she really wants to be out of state. This wholew process is so crazy!! We are also waiting on Boston Conservatory! Forgot she even auditioned there until now. Hope your D gets great news!
What’s the consensus on schools that say they will notify on April 1…which is a Sunday…Easter Sunday in fact. Does anyone know if they will hold off until Monday? Or release decisions the Friday prior? Or do you think they will really notify on April 1?
Has anyone got waitlisted for MT @ Syracuse? I am looking at the general school CC board, and some received a WL today, many rejections and a few acceptances.
@gingersnap97 - I’m taking my S - I think they have a parent thing for a while, but going alone because H needs to stay with the younger kids.
@MThopeful2022 , Hartt told me that letters would be postmarked no later than April 1. So I would guess they’ll go out the previous Friday.
