Hi! A couple of us posted in the general 2023 about MARCAS, so there’s some info in there. Below is a copy of what I posted, but in general, it was very friendly, and overall a great experience! I’m happy to try to answer any specific questions you may have.

For those who want to know more about MARCAS, it truly is a hodgepodge of responses from the various schools. S rec’d artistic acceptances from several schools, a couple of which he was already academically accepted to, and several others that they said would accept him (artistically) into their program, he just needed to apply to the school. (So, YAY! He has a couple of choices for school for BFA MT! The pressure is not nearly as high as it was). Financially, we found many schools that were interested in S to be forthcoming with information about scholarship $, and some were sending follow up info to us. Some wanted to see/hear more from S, and audition for scholarship $.
Overall, the experience was fantastic, and a great first college audition! And it was very validating for S to hear that colleges were interested in him, and that I’m not the only one who thinks he has some talent! LOL
