Do I have a chance? I’m a really strong actress, if I do extremely well in my auditions can I get in?

Your audition and essays will make or break you. I had a 3.2 GPA and had absolutely nothing on my drama resume (straight up hadn’t done any acting in 8 years), but I still got in. There were kids with 3.8 GPAs who’d been the star in all of the school plays and had private coaches for their monologues who didn’t get in.
