Hi Warbler and welcome to CC and I hope to see you here more in the future.

Your question isn’t really about the Unifieds because the admissions practices are not different at Unifieds than at on campus auditions.

Rather you are asking if when a student who auditions for a BFA program in MT, who is not admitted for MT, might be then considered for the Acting BFA at that same school.

The answer is that this differs from school to school. At SOME schools, they will consider you for either the BFA in MT or the BFA in Acting automatically. Example: Carnegie Mellon. At some schools, you can stipulate if you wish to be considered for either or just one. Examples: Syracuse, Ithaca, NYU/Tisch. At some schools, you can only apply to one option and will not be considered for another BFA option. Example: Emerson. At some schools, you can do two separate auditions to two separate programs, either BFA in MT or BFA in Acting. Example: UMichigan. Some schools only offer a BFA/BM in MT or only offer a BFA in Acting. Examples: Penn State, Boston University.

Confused yet?? LOL. Best is to read up on each school’s site and if you can’t find an answer there, call or write the program to find out the information.
