MT Schools/Auditions/General Stressing Out

<p>Hello! I know EXACTLY how you feel! I am currently a freshman MT major at Ball State, and Im loving it. I do want to give you a few huge tips though</p>

<ol>
<li><p>STOP STRESSING. Unifieds week was the best week of my life so far. Come prepared and confident, and remember that even if you have a horrible audition, you have many chances to impress many people. Everyone says it, but from my experiences, you need to know how important it is to be yourself.</p></li>
<li><p>Get help. Get a coach for your monoloues and songs, and make a comprehensive audition set, and it needs to feel right with you. Material you can relate to and are comfortable with.</p></li>
<li><p>Find the right fit. There are many schools and many people are blinded by “top ten list syndrome”. The training isnt the school, but what you put into to. So the number one thing to look for is an atmosphere you know that you will fit in.</p></li>
</ol>

<p>Remember, not only are you auditioning for the schools, but they are auditioning for you. The people that you are auditioning for will control the direction of your career for the next 4 years. So if they are jerks, take that into consideration.</p>

<p>Have fun and break legs! Please please please, feel free to private message me with any question or concern, because I went through the whole thing just one year ago.</p>
