How do I go about this process on my own???

In addition to I Got In by Mary Anna Dennard (you can order it cheaply from Amazon), here are some resources that may help you:

  1. Matthew Edwards from Shenandoah has a great website called The College Audition Blog. Under the "Musical Theater" menu heading you will find some great articles on materials, repertoire, do's and don'ts, "Secrets to Acing Your Audition," and much more.
  2. The Getaccptd blog has some great tips on the audition process.
  3. Take a look at the "Preparing to Apply" thread, which is posted at the top of this forum :http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/musical-theater-major/477658-preparing-to-apply-information-for-h-s-juniors-and-seniors.html#latest
  4. If you can, sit down with your parents and go through some of these websites with them to show them what you are about to go through.

NOTE FROM MODERATOR: Thank you for trying to be helpful. However, as you noted in your post, CC does not permit links to BLOGS. Using a “spell around” is against the rules. These have to be deleted. Please do not use “spell arounds.” Further, links to sites that also promote services, such as coaching, as was originally posted in item #1, are not allowed. People can google if they wish based on information left after editing. Thank you for your cooperation along with the helpfulness.
