Musical Theater College Admission 2025

My daughter heard she got in via email earlier this month. She was elated.

Not as of yet
need to check in with my wife and daughter. Right now, my daughter is all about the Spring musical at school. They’re doing ‘Bright Star’ and she got the lead (Alice Murphy). She loves that musical, too. Her bf is playing her love interest in the show. He got into Oklahoma BFA MT. Talented kiddos :face_holding_back_tears:

Crickets. Nothing yet.

Hi! Does anyone know if the MMC waitlist moves?

I love that! There is a student and friend of my sons’s that got into Carnegie MT. It’s just amazing to think that this cohort of kids are so brilliant. Lifelong friends in a competitive industry. How cool that our kids have that going for them. They are both performing with our regional/community/semi-professional theatre in town this Spring as the HS Spring show is for the underclassmen. :heart::sparkles:

Also - I’m doing my best to stay chill and not bug my kid about checking emails and what not. They just want to enjoy the last memories of Highschool. That’s why I’m so thankful for this forum! I can freak out in here and it’s totally acceptable! Lol

I can say that I know a story of a girl that was on 6 waiting lists (not sure what schools) and ended up getting off of all 6! Congratulations for making it that far. That means they want you in the program and can see you successful there. I guess all you can do is let them know that you are very interested if you were to make it off of the waitlist. I also think that most MT are still waiting on all their offers before they decide, so many early April will have some movement as more people decide? What are you doing to cope with the waiting? I’ve been doing house projects and sewing and listening to audiobooks.

That does give me a lot of hope! I’ve been trying to keep in touch with the MMC and Rider and show clear continued interest. As for what I’ve been doing
 not much sadly. I really need to get back to my hobbies and stop constantly checking for emails and stuff :sob:. I usually paint, draw, crochet— but I’ve been so worried that I’ve gotten no art done. I may actually chill out more now.

Hi! I recently listened to a podcast that contains some useful information about getting off waitlists. Here it is, just in case it’s helpful. Best of luck - please keep us posted!

Thank you for the resource! I’ll definitely check it out.

Has anyone else received Pace phone calls? Pace is my daughter’s first choice so I want to be able to prepare her if they are done.

Yes we did yesterday

Indiana sent all the MT admission decisions?

Hello! Does anyone have any insight on point parks musical theatre program. What things have you guys heard about it?

I emailed Pace and they said that quote “They called a few people yesterday for MT but all official decisions will be sent at the end of the week”.

I personally would prep your kid for the worst— but there’s a tiny bit of hope lol

no, as of right now i only know of rejections

Anyone have a specific date for Depaul?

That is good they are sending rejections first instead of keeping them in limb!

Omg I won’t get my hopes up but thanks for letting me know :))

Does end of the week mean Friday (tomorrow) or sunday?

Pace or a different school?
