<p>The application process is not difficult but you do need to get materials in on time! The information about applying is on their website and the due dates are in spring. Getting an audition tape or DVD ready is the main challenge so plan ahead for this part, if your son is applying for the MT extension (2 weeks in addition to the larger acting program for 5 weeks). The program is definitely worth doing, as indicated by posters here. S attended in 2006 and was among the fairly large number of Cherubs accepted at Carnegie Mellon in the entering class of 2007. Cherubs was not the deciding factor in those decisions but it was a positive factor.</p>
