Need a "safety" choice -- accomplished with the oboe

Julliard accepted 2 oboists in the undergrad division and 1 in the graduate division (total is therefore 3) They have 4 spots in each division, (corresponding to the needs for an undergrad orchestra and a graduate school orchestra) . They will not know until November what openings might occur for next year, but it would seem unlikely that there would be any more than 2 openings for undergraduates (assuming that the 2 new students will not want to leave after one year…)
I believe both of the new undergrads were already Julliard students, in the pre-college, although the admissions dean would not say.
Hope this clears up any confusion.
