Lilybird4:

Good morning all! Sorry that I have not been on for a bit. But I wanted to make sure to thank @MAmum1234 and @DivaStageMom for their advice regarding Gap year and re-auditioning while in the first year of college. Your advice was very helpful, and we have decided to move forward with the options she has in hand. Current front runners are American MT and TCU BA Theater. She is still hopeful to get off of the waitlist at Wagner. We still haven’t heard back from OCU, and if that comes back positive, it could be a game changer. She has been in contact with them and hopes to hear soon.

Even though Muhlenberg has a great program and she loves the school, it was taken off her list because when she looks at the accepted students FB group, it is nearly all theater majors. She would rather be at a smaller program.

Also, if anyone knows anything about American MT, we would love to hear it! They have no Instagram page for Theater, no YouTube videos of any of their performances, and no accepted students page on FB for theater. It is nearly impossible to find out anything. This is a huge red flag for us!!

Thanks and hope all are doing well! ?

@Lilybird4 Do you mind if I ask what the OCU adimissions counselor said about an artistic decision? We know that they said it would take roughly 4-6 weeks for a decision and my D has just reached the 6 week mark. She is reluctant to call and ask because she doesn’t want to “bother” the faculty facepalm. I would’ve sent this in a PM if I could but as a newbie on CC I’m not sure how…
Thank you!
