<p>MTMom, I don’t know how you or your son feel about two year conservatory programs for MT, but these don’t involve any academic component for admission, let alone no academic courses in the program. It is not too late to apply and audition at Circle in the Square Theater School in NYC or CAP21 Professional Musical Theater Training Program in NYC…both are two year programs in MT by audition. He could audition just to have that option even if he were not to choose to attend next year, but to keep some options on the table for now.</p>
