Fordham (N for D) and Emerson (Y for D) are both out. 2 down 2 to go!! Best of luck everyone!! All the good vibes to all of you for some good news today. (also, I shamelessly got off the highway outside NYC to check her portal. 8-|)
Yes for Emerson BFA Acting ⊠Waitlist Fordham
Congrats @actingdreams and @ginaf1102 on Emerson. No on Fordham theatre. They said he could do another major and minor in theatre. Nice scholarship to soften the blow. Good luck, all.
Yes for Emerson for my D, too. Just came in.
@ginaf1102 and @actingdreams Congrats on the Emerson acceptance! I find the Fordham no and waitlist a little puzzling, given your other acceptances, but that just shows how crazy/unpredictable this whole process can be.
@proudcalidad Congrats! Hopefully you can get some sleep this weekend. Those dark circles under your eyes must be a result of this process. 
@proudcalidad - We were posting at the same time. Congrats to your D! And @VASkydog, I think thatâs pretty nice they still offered admission with the theatre minor and a scholarship. I did not know they would do that.
Ha â yes, itâs been a hell of a process. (the photo is actually one of our dogs â my daughterâs dog, in the sense that he sleeps in her room, etc, and itâs gonna be SO HARD on both of them when she leaves in August).
Congrats to all as all of these final ones come in over the next couple weeks. We should all meet in the middle of the country for drinks.
Does anyone know - have all the SUNY Purchase and Pace calls gone out?
My son got into Emerson too!!! He went to BUSTI this summer so he loves Boston. @proudcalidad Drinks in the middle of the country sounds great
Yes for Emerson Costume Design here! Still waiting on CMU (tech has not been notified) and BU and then we can be done.
thanks! @Twoboysandadog looking at their group make-up, I am not surprised with Fordham and My S isnât disappointed at all. He gets it
Emerson QuestionâŠS was admitted but the letter is very generic. Is that the case for everyone? He auditioned for BFA Acting. Even with an admittance there is doubt!! Geesh! HAHA!
Congrats to all on Emerson! @actingdreams, @ginaf1102, @proudcalidad and @emf1959 and anyone that I missed! I went to college in Boston and it is a great place to go to school!
@Twoboysandadog Ha, it looks like we were. Thanks. And yes, all of this proves that the process is chaotic and very much a black swan â we can try and put some rhyme and reason on it, but itâs all chaos. Every audition is different, every school is different, every day and hour, and itâs all super subjective. My D is in at Fordham and Emerson and a few others, but got a quick no from Marymount Manhattan (where sheâd applied and gotten in for directing), which confuses her but thatâs the nature of the business. Itâs all subjective, and itâs all what happens on the day, plus 50,000 other things you just canât control. And as parents, all we can do is support⊠and drink heavily.
Thanks @Fourstars Congrats @momof2lefties wow all of these amazing programs! she has so many amazing choices! So happy for her.
congrats on the other Emerson College Acceptances. It looks they offer great programs!
@vpvpbp congratulations! My S. Letter certainly looks generic and generated for the masses
@STHmom someone mentioned that the admissions faculty stated that only some calls were made recently and that they were just now going out. It was stated in the AM. Iâm sure more have gone out since then
Congrats @actingdreams , @emf1959 , @vpvpbp , @proudcalidad , @ginaf1102. I find myself wondering if at least some of our kids are destined to meet up at some point.
@vpvpbp My Dâs letter said something like âyour academics and abilities make you a perfect addition to our program in Theatre And Performance.â Thatâs what their BFA program is called - -itâs not called Acting or anything, itâs Theatre and Performance. So as long as it says that, Iâm sure youâre 100% good!
