BFA Acting Class of 2023: preparation, prescreens, auditions, questions and support

Thank you @love2share!

We just got a letter that said my D is waitlisted but it didn’t say specifically for the MT program, how do we know for sure

@lagpueblo What college? Maybe have your daughter call and ask.

My D got accepted to Emerson!

Yes for us for Emerson too! Phew!!!

Congrats to all the Emerson acceptances!!

FYI - Minnesota/Guthrie has announced their new acting director for the BFA and are launching their first NYC showcase.

@MomMimi @love2share congratulations!!!

Big congrats to Emerson acceptances!! @love2share, @MomMimi and @Gapyearguru

It’s been a couple of days since Pace BFA updates, anyone have any good news to spread on acceptances? :wink:

@TravelMom402 Where can we see the UMinn Guthrie announcement?

Did anyone apply at UNCG for acting?

@TravelMom402 and @RogueMom Here’s what I heard about UMinn/Guthrie… Aaron Todd Douglas is the new Director at Minnesota. He’s coming from Northwestern. Officially starting in the fall, but one would think he’d get things set before that. The NYC showcase has been in the works for a while. ATD will apparently start a Chicago Showcase as well, so UMinn/Guthrie will have three showcases: Minneapolis, NYC and Chicago. This year’s seniors will do showcases in Minnesota and NYC.

Congrats on the Emerson acceptances and sorry (and I hope it wasn’t a dream school) for those who got the “no” letters from them.

Here’s some info on UMinn/Guthrie’s new director from the school’s website: https://cla.umn.edu/theatre/news-events/news/bfa-acting-program-welcomes-new-director

Denied at Emerson, but she’s okay with it because she doesn’t love Boston (I know, crazy!). Still no word from PP or Pace FTVC. On the latter, I’m going to assume it’s a “no” by snail mail.

@nyermom Someone posted on here recently that supposedly some students who are being accepted at Pace are not going to be called personally. I don’t have personal confirmation of this, just wanted to share what was posted. Hoping it’s true!

@nyermom Point Park notifies everyone at the same time…if you didn’t receive an email, you should call the school.

@jenniferm1973 I actually called this afternoon and left a message. They did respond by email tonight and it turns out that my daughter used her personal email (and not her highschool email) on the app. I told my D to check that old email. Now if I can only get her to tell me what it said. Trying my best to be casual and subtle. :wink: She is surprisingly relaxed about this.

I’m hearing Syracuse does notification on Fridays - anybody have any info on that?
