Hi ginja17,
My d auditioned on Jan 21st and was accepted academically 3 months ago but no news about MT. She has many friends who auditioned after her who have heard already. Are they unofficially wait listing some kids until they are done with all auditions ?
hmmm, Perhaps they are waiting for all the auditions to be complete before accepting any more students This must be the final weekend of auditions!
@voiceteachermama, I would CALL them. The theatre/MT department is sometimes at odds with the admissions department, and there is occasionally miscommunication. This happened to a few people last year and is the fault of admissions, not the people who auditioned your child. You should have heard by now.
Does anyone know how many students are accepted into the Montclair MT program?
20-22 @ginja17
How many do they audition for the 20-22 spots?
And more importantly, how many have already been accepted!?
Aiming4Success, I don’t suppose you have any idea about how many have already been accepted?
There 17 people in the group chat on Facebook right now. Most are MT, but there are a few acting majors.That is all that I know! @ginja17
Montclair state has a portal? Where is it?
They audition around 1000.
Any word yet for people that were waiting? This seems to be a problem? We auditioned march 25 , has anyone from that round heard back? I mean it hasn’t been long for us but it seems like people from Jan hadn’t heard?
I think I read somewhere that decisions could take as long as April 21… did I dream that? Could it have been just another one of my acceptance nightmares? ;0
This is where I saw it. I was thinking 3 weeks from D’s audition would be April 22.
From the website:
Notification of Admission Status
Following the appointment, the Department will forward its recommendation to the Admissions Office, which will notify you of your overall status within approximately three weeks. Please note that, in some cases, applicants may be placed on a waiting list.
My D auditioned at Chicago Unifieds and we still haven’t heard anything. Monday I emailed the department (no response yet) and today I talked to undergrad admissions. Admissions said a decision was made and they would have a new letter sent to my D. They said that is the only way to find out - so frustrating! With all of this I think it is going to be a No:(
You were on the phone with them and they wouldn’t tell you the decision? Argh that’s so frustrating!
Yes @ginja17! My D said she heard Yes kids were emailed so we’re not expecting good news.
oh no! I am so sorry. I will not hold my breath then either 
Ugh! This is so difficult
I also called admissions yesterday because my D’s application status was incomplete - the audition was not checked off (even though she had auditioned) Admissions sent me to Theater and Dance directly; Theater and Dance told me to send an email to the woman who handles the auditions. D got a short email back saying that all audition results are sent to admissions within 48 hours.
Doesn’t sound promising
Don’t all schools have to notify by April 15th?? Doesnt seem right that they wait this long to let kids know if they are accepted, denied, or waitlisted…
