thanks so much to all of you for your advice! We are definitely going to the SETC in NC in March. D’s school does not participate in it but we are taking her ourselves. I think that will be a huge help or at least I hope so ! LOL. We are working on the college list this summer and our goal is to whittle it to a manageable list. We are going to visit one campus this summer that she is interested in just so she can see a campus somewhere else that has MT. It is Coastal Carolina. She has repeatedly said she does not want a rural campus…ugh…wants near a city at least. She does like the south though so she is making exception for that one! I can see this is my new PT job for the next few yrs! I am completely intimidated by the video prescreens…so tech challenged. We have a potential person at the university near us that has MT that can coach her for auditions when that time comes. I am just so overwhelmed right not with the admission processes…applying academically and then setting up an audition since every school seems to be different…I guess I am most confused as to how many schools she should apply to for a good chance at several acceptances. I am thinking at least 6?
