My daughter had applied to BFA and BA acting programs. As she went through the audition process and learned more about the schools, she learned she would prefer to go to a school that would let her pursue some of her non-acting academic interests too. She was just accepted to UCLA acting and couldn’t be happier. Still waiting to hear from Northwestern and NYU which also fit the bill!

I think that’s what she meant by rolling. ie: there isn’t one set date. But I do think they said no later than April 1. I guess we shall see

My DD was “waitlisted” at UMN Guthrie, too. I’m wondering if they put everyone on the waitlist who got a callback. I’ve heard of quite a number of kids who have been placed on a “waitlist.”
WL Guthrie here too.
Guthrie waitlist here too. There are lots
That was my daughter’s view as well. In addition, she started out interested in MT but as she progressed, doing some Shakespeare and other straight theater performances — she decided she was interested in broader acting programs so thats been more her focus. Although she continues to sing, applied to and was accepted in a couple of MT programs, she would like to include MT as just a subset of her program rather than the main focus. She is in James Madison, Virginia Commonwealth, and Penn State Acting, all of which fit the bill. Waiting on Syracuse, BU, TISCH, and Northwestern, any of which would work as well.

I am currently waiting on more financial info from DePaul and Syracuse, as well as decisions from Carnegie Mellon and BU. At the moment my most realistic options are UCF and TCU. Any insight into those programs? I am design/tech but any information is appreciated!
Hi everyone! My D is a current BFA Acting student at DePaul University who got off the WL. For those wondering, she sent a LOCI and got financial info from DePaul in her letter of acceptance. Their WL does tend to move, but it moves slowly. My D did not find out she was in until early June, when she was already committed to another program! She really is loving the program! Good luck to everyone!

@Loganator is the tech guru from last years class of 2024
Thanks for the tag, @NYYFanNowMTdad! Unfortunately, @003techie, I’m not familiar with the tech programs at either TCU, UCF, or Syracuse, so I’m no help this time.

Anyone else waitlisted for purchase bfa acting
yup. sigh. Don’t know how to feel about it…
Anyone else on the WL for Baldwin Wallace BFA Acting? Has anyone moved off the list yet?
So my D received an Email from Syracuse yesterday for some additional FA information. She is still waiting to hear about acceptance to the acting BFA.
Just wondering if that is a good sign or not?
Here, too. Wonder if they pulled a Minnesota and WL everyone they didn’t choose.
My guess would be that it’s good - could be acceptance or WL. I assume if they were going to reject your D, they wouldn’t need to know any FA info! I know that some BFA folks heard last week, but most of the acceptances we heard were from MT (15+ people) with only a few who heard from acting. My D is waiting to hear from them on acting too.
We are hopeful it’s a good sign, but who knows. All of us on here will know soon enough.
Good luck to your D!

My daughter is on the waitlist for BFA Acting at BW! We haven’t heard anything, but we were thinking it’s pretty early for people to release acceptances. The letter did say they were starting to review this week. Crossing everything here, good luck to you guys!
