Theatre at Northeastern?

I was trying to find out if there is an audition into Northeastern’s theatre program. I’ve searched CC, and I still couldn’t tell if an audition figured into it. This is what I found on the NEU website:

“After completing 32 quarter hours, theatre majors may choose to be theatre generalists or to concentrate in production or performance. Admission to a concentration is by petition or audition.”

This suggests that you can get in by regular means, but then you audition later (not sure how long … 2nd year? 3rd year?), I’m imagining they mean for the performance major (petition would be for the others?).

Anyone know the details on this particular program? I know they have MT, too, but I’m asking more about straight theatre. Curious about the audition issue, but also the experience in general.

Thanks!
