Skype Interviews w/Digital Auditions viewed less highly than In-Person?

When I applied via Common App to NYU, there was a problem with my application that I was not aware of until the night before the application was due. When I finally got my NYU ID after a few days of back-and-forth to make sure my final application would be accepted, there were no more In-Person auditions dates in Chicago or in nearby cities (my family was not in the best financial situation and a plane ticket would have been too much). I opted for one of the last two Skype Interview with Digital Audition spots “in Chicago”.

I was told by one of my friends who is currently studying in the musical theatre studio at NYU that the Digital Auditions are viewed less highly than the In-Person ones as she found out from her voice teacher there. I was wondering if this would possibly give me less of a chance of being accepted? Could that possibly be the case?
