Hi All! I wanted to start a discussion for this year’s college audition cycle. I’m also a member on MT parents Facebook, but I love the anonymity of this board and think it’s a great place to discuss this crazy audition process.
I’ll start with a little intro. I have a daughter who is a senior in high school pursuing a BFA MT. We’ve been researching this process for a while now, but it’s August and we already feel behind 
We cannot afford any of the fancy coaching services, so we’ve mostly just been doing this on our own with a little help from her voice teacher.
We have 12 schools on her list, one of them being our in-state non-audition BA Theatre. We plan to submit all prescreens virtually and then attend Chicago Unifieds if she is invited to audition. I would love to expand her list a little, but she doesn’t want to go farther than 6-8 hours from our home (however we do have 2-3 lottery schools that are farther than that).
Would love to hear from others going through this same process, and also any advice from those who have already been through it!!
