<p>OK, so maybe we are a bit nutty - we are applied to 23 schools, with about 12 auditions scheduled so far. Waiting (hopefully) for callbacks on prescreens. Our D has been accepted at Columbia Chicago, which is a good safety school because there are no auditions required until the end of freshman year if you want to step up to the BFA MT program. Still not a top choice, but at least it’s something in her hip pocket. This probably isn’t the best thread for this question, but what are some other safeties?</p>
