<p>Hi Soozievt, we have been communicating regarding my D and the
audition process. Your last post recommended her not attend a school where she did not get into the BFA program with the hopes to re-apply in the future. Can you provide me with your advice on how she should proceed? You mentioned take a gap year and acquire more training/experience, does that mean she should defer one of her acceptances?
How does this work? Can she defer with one college, then re-apply the following fall all over again? Sorry if I seem confused, but I am. I just want to understand all the possible options. You also mentioned it would be easier to start the admission process as a freshman instead of a transfer, is this true for all the same schools she applied? She was rejected from Emerson, NYU, has academically been accepted to; Manhattanville, Marymount Manhattan, New Paltz, Pace & Oneonta, Brooklyn & Queens College. She has New Paltz and Manhattanville auditions to complete. Awaiting acceptance artistically into these programs. The last application submitted was to Muhlenberg which she is waiting on. With the information provided above, I hope you can give me some advice on the options you see. I respect the advice you give to so many of the MT/Acting posts. It’s too bad our school does not provide all this guidance and information as it could avoid the confusion, unnecessary stress that exists already.</p>
<p>Thanks, Maggie</p>
