<p>With all due respect to above (very knowledgeable members), since there were also changes with Tisch’s auditions this year, it just may be best to go straight to the source. </p>
<p>Again, what I alluded to above, when I asked during a tour last year if those who get invited to Saturday in the Square are only those with the highest academic credentials, I was told that this invite was actually based on a combination of factors, very much in line with Tisch’s acceptance philosophy. I asked this because at that time we knew of a very talented young man, who had exceptional grades, and yet was not invited to this event the year before, while his friend (with scores in the low end of the spectrum) did. </p>
<p>Moral of my story? Assuming that still only a small group of people get this invite, do not feel that you are necessarily Tisch’s “second choice”. Just remember that, like alwaysamom also says, logistics of inviting everybody would seem quite challenging.</p>
