<p>Hi everyone! I auditioned for the BFA musical theatre program earlier this year. Had anyone heard back anything yet?</p>
<p>My S auditioned at the NYC Unifieds for BFA Acting. We recieved an email this Monday saying- </p>
<p>We are writing you to thank you for your recent application and audition to the University of Miamis BFA program. We are currently negotiating our way through several hundred applications in our quest to put together the next freshmen class. We would like to ask your patience in this process which we know to be difficult, but the more time we have to review our possibilities assures a better outcome for all of us involved. We invite you to please check with the Admissions Office to make certain that all of the necessary materials are in your file, and to let you know we are here to help you through this process. Please feel free to contact any one of us directly and do not hesitate to phone our office at 305.284.4474 to arrange an on-campus tour. Please keep in touch with us during the next few weeks in regards to your interest in our program.</p>
<p>I think we stil have some time to wait…</p>
<p>FYI last year my daughter heard from the BFA MT program on 3/8/2012 so you could be on the verge of hearing back. She auditioned at LA unifides which was at the end of their audition season. Good luck. It’s a really nice program and a beautiful school.</p>
<p>That is great news!
halfokum is your daughter at U of Miami? If so how does she like it?</p>
<p>No she is at NYU Tisch but she came this close to picking U Miami. We did go visit after her acceptance and really liked it. I thought the intimacy of the theatre (which some people complain about but I thought it was cool) was a big plus. It has a flexible plan so you can do theatre in the round and other configurations and the audience is so close that you really need to be on your game because they can see everything you do. We attended a dress rehearsal of a musical that was about to go up and it was fantastic. I know several kids from our area (west coast) that attend U Miami and they are extremely talented. I hope you get accepted and take a close look. Thumbs up!</p>
<p>Nothing yet…anyone?</p>

<p>My D still has not heard anything. The wait is killing me.</p>
<p>My son just checked his MyUM status and learned he was waitlisted.</p>
<p>My son just checked his account and he was accepted to U of Miami’s BFA Acting!!!</p>
<p>Congrats to your S cjenny2! I saw that my D got an email congratulating her on her accomplishments and inviting her to RSVP to the admitted students day however I still do not know if she got into the BFA program because I do not know her caneID. I have to wait until she gets home from school for her to check. The wait is killing me even more! I called the school and I was told the decision could be found if she logged in and the packet was mailed yesterday. They would give me no info over the phone.</p>
<p>So sorry for the wait! can she text you her log in info? My son sent me his because his schedule is so crazy right now.</p>
<p>3daughters- my S recieved the welcome email today too.</p>
<p>My MyUM Still isn’t showing an admissions decision! Does this mean I didn’t make it?</p>
<p>Cjenny2-congrats again to your S. My D received a fabulous academic scholarship but unfortunately was only accepted into the BA program for theatre arts. She will take a look at the curriculum but I do not think that it will interest her. Oh well…another one bites the dust! We wait for the next one…</p>
<p>Krzripgirl-If there is still no decision there tomorrow, call admissions and they will let you know if a decision has been made yet. I called today and they told me that my D packet was mailed yesterday. They would not tell me the decision over the phone but they told me one was made.</p>
<p>3daughters- Thank you so much for your reply! This whole process is extraordinarily stressful!! Best of luck to your daughter!</p>
<p>Krzripgirl - I hope the news comes soon!
3daughters so sorry your daughter didn’t get the BFA. Did you get the scholarship info in the mail? We are not sure how we are going to afford Miami. </p>

<p>cjenny2-The scholarship info was in the email acceptance letter that was on her myUM account. Although her packet was mailed out, we have not received it yet. We live in NJ. I am expected it to come in the mail tomorrow. If Miami is of interest and you have other scholarship offers, see if Miami will come up with some money for you. I am fairly certain that my D will be giving up her large scholarship if she gets into a BFA program. We will have to see when all the final decisions come in. So far, no BFA acceptances, so she might have to accept a BA offer.</p>
<p>Still nothing!! This is driving me crazy!</p>
<p>Krzripgirl-Did you hear anything yet? I hope you are not still waiting. My D finally received her packet in the mail today and to her surprise the letter in the mail was slightly different than the decision letter on her myUM. She is actually wait listed for the BFA program. This was not on her myUM decision letter. I called and confirmed it. Miami is back in the running! You should call the school and find out when you should expect your decision in the mail if you have not already received it and go by what you receive in the mail.</p>
