LA Unifieds or Chicago Unifieds or both?

Also with Chicago, some schools come on Saturday and Sunday before the official start of Unifieds. My D did Roosevelt CCPA (on campus) and Emerson on Sat, and Syracuse and Tisch on Sunday, and then had the 3 full days of official unified auditions M-W. That enabled her to do all but one of her school auditions in one place, and since we are from the southwest, that really helped with the schedule/travel costs. LA would have been closer, but I believe a couple schools D was auditioning for were not going to be there, plus there weren’t enough days to do all the ones we needed – we needed the 5 days in Chicago to get everything done.

The important thing if you’re going to try to cram all auditions into a week is to be ridiculously careful about germs. We did some pretty weird stuff to keep D from catching flu/viruses, but it worked, and I’d do it again in a heartbeat to keep everybody healthy at such a crucial time. Thank goodness for germbana! But that’s another thread. :)
