<p>I am desperate to ask the schools that accepted my girl a question but I don’t know if I should or how I would word it (and I’m NOT fishing for complements.)
I want to know why program directors grabbed my kid out of the mass of talented, driven young women and said “I want her.” Are they thinking about casting in the future? Is it all about the ability? Is it really just type-type-type? Why exactly did the school think my girl is a good fit for their program? If we knew what the directors were thinking it would give insight into what she could expect in the future at a school. I am still dazed, confused and gob-smacked about how it has all turned out and she only has a couple of weeks to decide. And she thought the traveling would be done with the auditions! Ha! (Maybe she could ask “Why do you think I’d be a good fit for your program?” Is that an honest wording without seeming to ask for complements, but for useful information?)</p>
