<p>I’m sorry for not responding to your question sooner. Precisely because of limited openings, we are scrapping IDP for composition applicants. However, we have enough flexibility with all other instruments to allow IDP, EA, and RD applications. There will be no preference either way. The real question is whether your s/d is musically ready in early November for an audition. If not, s/he can use IDP or EA for a decision from Bard College, but should wait until January 15th to turn in the prescreening DVD and Supplemental Application. </p>
<p>We will not have everything stitched up from IDP.</p>
