Academic Acceptance

<p>I have a quick question to all that may know this…
I will be applying for Coastal this month and I will be auditioning for the BFA MT program in Feb. ( If I pass my digital audition of course) So, I will probably hear from the school before my audition… My question is, WHAT IF I don’t get accepted to the school, will I still be able to audition? I always wondered that…</p>

<p>No. You can’t be in the program if you can’t attend the university ;)</p>

<p>Take a look at the audition page on the Coastal website, it says, “PLEASE NOTE: Admission is based on current University standards and an audition and interview process.”</p>

<p>“current University standards” means you meet admission requirements.</p>

<p>Every school is different. Some schools require university acceptance before you can even set up an audition. Be sure to check each school’s and program’s requirements.</p>

<p>Thank you so much! That is great to know.</p>

<p>And CCU usually sends academic acceptances out within a couple of weeks of receiving your application. Since you are applying early you will know your status soon and can make your audition plans based on that.</p>

<p>Hello! We are planning a trip to visit CCU in May, but I am so happy to have had some questions answered already online through these threads-thank you everyone! My d loves the south, which is part of the attraction, and loves acting, is interested in both film acting and the technology of it all. She’s been a dancer since 2 yo, and has had roles in MT in community theatre and school plays. She is considering a BA instead of a BFA, though, so she can “branch out” some. She is great with children, so we are wondering if a BA with a teaching certificate is offered at CCU. And also, if accepted, can she still audition for a scholarship even if not applying for the BFA. She’s a junior now. Thanks for any direction we can receive!</p>

<p>We don’t offer a Theatre Ed degree. For the students interested in that track, we highly suggest that they enter a program on campus where they obtain their B.A. and an M.Ed. in a five year period. They begin the Masters the May after graduation and complete it the following May. This allows the student to gain licensure in most any state. Personally, I recommend they double major with a BA in theatre and a second degree that would allow them to teach in that field. English is a popular one. Hope that makes sense.</p>
