@posivibes thank you
How did the acceptance come? I’ve heard it is just by portal? Our portal still says “complete ready for review”
@Classof23MTmom I think it came by portal.
@ZukAndSowash an acceptance at BoCo for our D too and she’s thrilled as she fell in love when she did their MTDI program. We are in the same boat financially. Some great offers from others with much more money, but a very small award from BoCo and none from NYU Tisch. Double ouch, it’s really a mixed blessing. We will be crunching lots of numbers this weekend.
Congrats to all on the acceptances and waitlists and best of luck to all of you wonderful parents and all your amazing kids!
@valkyrie360 congrats!
D was just accepted to BoCo!! any idea how many kids they accept into MT?
@theatermom234 Congratulations!
@theatermom I’m not sure how many they accept to get there, but the MT class size at BoCo is around 60, divided into 4 groups and rotating each year, so you’re tight with a group of 15 taking classes together. And by the end of four years you’ve been in a group with every member of the class.
Thanks everyone for the helpful info re: BoCo financial aid. Upon closer inspection, I’ve realized that my son was actually awarded $0 in financial aid (the small package was actually just a federal stafford loan). So, I will contact financial aid this morning, but I can only imagine we will be releasing his spot quickly.
Hi all - has every school notified or at least does everyone know where they stand re: yes, no, waitlist or date you will hear? I’ll do one last big list update for the class of 2024 (!!) to pick up next year. Waitlists are a great topic, but probably best on a separate thread, so that future classes can easily reference the wiki intelligence.
I see over on the Venting thread that some families are still waiting to hear from Montclair, Lynn and Drake. Meanwhile…I started a Waitlist forum, since I didn’t see one http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/musical-theater-major/2135316-waitlist-wiki-info-questions-stories.html#latest
@ZukAndSowash my nephew received the same award from BoCo ($0). He is currently discussing with their FA office. They are not known for high FA awards but maybe he will have luck. Wishing you luck if you appeal!
@DramaLlama18 Univ. of Oklahoma has still not sent out any “nos”.
Waiting for Hartt and University of Wisconsin S-P.
@Larkin19 @MTdreamin okay - I’ll wait a few weeks to post the final 2019 notification list. At least we know that all the schools have to tell you soon! It’s a good idea to check in with the school directly if you haven’t heard anything by the end of this week because accepted students days are happening and kids are starting to make their final decision.
Still waiting on Wright State
Got the email that D is on the “short standby list” at Unv of OK and that everything should be wrapped up by mid-April. Anyone else? Wonder how much movement there is? This is a top choice for her! Just wish we could know sooner bc she has an Apr 15 deadline at another school. She did let go of her Millikin spot a couple days ago so hopefully that helps someone. Will be nice to have this all settled in a few weeks! ? Congrats to everyone…the process is almost over!
@mommyMT
My S got the same email. That was one of his top choices as well so now we don’t know what to think? We were getting kind of close to making a decision but this could change everything
@MamaMiaMyMy we are in the exact same position! She has all but said yes to another school, but we were expecting to hear from OK soon and Missouri this week as well so she hadn’t committed yet and now this could really change everything! I have heard OK is only taking 11 total this year so even getting on their WL is an accomplishment! Congrats to your S! Hopefully we’ll know soon!
Thank you @mommyMT ! Congratulations to your D as well! Lots to ponder!
My D is working to choose between Belmont and Steinhardt. She’s wanting to ask some questions of a current Steinhardt student. Anyone here have a contact who might be willing to answer some questions?
