A dear friend of my son made a mistake and only applied to a few colleges Her dream is Musical Theater major. She did not get into her top two schools As you can imagine she is heartbroken. She doesn’t love her backup choices. Any well regarded programs still accepting applications?

East coast preferred

Thanks so much for any leads!!!

Looks like University of Arts is still taking applications and is holding on-campus auditions on:
February 18, 2017
March 4, 2017
March 18, 2017
April 8, 2017

It says the application has to be in two weeks before the audition so she might not make the February 18th audition date.

Marymount Manhattan is still taking applications.

Check out SEMO, northern Illinois, northern Kentucky -they may be taking applications still.

Univ of northern Colorado and university of Utah as well.

If she lives near Chicago or LA she could potentially do some walk in auditions at unifieds.

@JerseyParents There are plenty of MT schools out there still accepting applications. What specific schools did she apply to and were the results? Please post so others don’t waste time recommending duplicates.

@JerseyParents I believe that Coastal Carolina is still accepting prescreens, Ball State and UArts are still accepting applications also. Western Carolina University in NC and Lipscomb University in Nashville, TN are also still accepting apps and auditions. Catawba College in NC may still be accepting also.

thanks for the responses USARTS is especially good to know about. She’s a Jersey girl so left coast choices wouldn’t be as top choices

Ill be sure to compile a list at the end of this thread for others who run into this problem in the future

Here is a past thread on this topic:

http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/musical-theater-major/1865621-late-auditions-rolling-admissions-p1.html

Unfortunately for the student mentioned in the OP, most of the usual suspects are not located on the East Coast:

Memphis
Nebraska Wesleyan
Northern Kentucky
Oakland (MI)
Plymouth State University
Rockford University
Sam Houston State
Southern Illinois University
Western Carolina
Western Illinois University
Western Michigan
UAB
UArts
Viterbo

Other schools that may accept late video auditions (some of the schools noted above may also accept late video submissions):

Central Washington
Lindenwood
Santa Fe U Art & Design
South Dakota
Tampa

There are no doubt other schools that may still be accepting applications.

I believe that Dean College, LIU Post, and Molloy/ Cap21, Emory & Henry, are still accepting applications as well.
