We are waiting, too, @bisouu. In our case, a big audition and a post-college training course, both happening on Monday. I think we’ll always be waiting. Buckle up, all you theater moms and dads.
@jkellynh17 I have only avoided the waiting by not knowing what my D is waiting for! LOL! She prefers not sharing until she gets something because I think it makes it even harder for her if she doesn’t get something and then has to tell me about the rejection also. Since she is auditioning everyday, I guess as you said the waiting never stops!
Yes, there’s a lot I don’t hear about now, too, but when it’s really exciting, he calls.
@Jkellynh17 i love that! it’s so fun to share!
@frontrowmama - I can’t believe I deleted the best part out of that story! I must have cut it in the editing process…
When my D had gone to the singing call, they called them out 5 at a time. Then 4 in her group and she wasn’t with them. She wasn’t with them because they were talking to her about being accepted. Right There! That’s why we didn’t have anything to talk about on the way home!
(so embarrased that i cut the best part out of that!)
@Fergie978 I thought maybe she was just in shock! haha. That is fantastic! What a great story and I truly wish her much success!!!
Well, it’s a no from SUNY Purchase for us, sadly. @laylamom, I hope you got better news!
Oh @actorparent1 I’m very sorry…I am also positive we will hear the same. My daughter said people got calls a while ago. We have slow mail. This part just sucks! I feel for you.
NYU is releasing at 6:00.
This second half of the year has been abysmal and I feel nauseous.
sorry @actorparent1 This is not easy.
Anyone hear anything from BoCo? Not sure what their historical pattern is. One would think it would be soon.
I am keeping my fingers crossed for you, @laylamom! And I feel the same way, nauseous and upset and trying to figure out our best options.
We still have Hartt left to hear from, but odds are slim, so we need to start making plans as if it’s a “no.” On Monday, D is auditioning for Stella Adler. On Tuesday, she’s sitting in on a class at Marymount. The following Saturday, we’re going to accepted students day at UArts. Hopefully by the end of next week, she’ll feel at least somewhat positive about one of those options! (That’s assuming she gets into Stella Adler, which she very well may not. If she doesn’t, it’s down to Marymount and UArts. But at least Stella Adler will always be there, even if she goes when she’s 25 or 30 or whatever.)
If by some miracle, Hartt comes through for her, that would be amazing, but we can’t count on it. We need to look forward.
@actorparent1 The options you list are still very exciting! My girl did the Adler Teen Conservatory last summer. Best training and vibe ever. Just the photo’s and the history there gives me goosebumps. Also we loved U of Arts but are not considering it because of an ex bf (stupid reason- but in this case she just can’t). Know some VERY talented and happy kids there. Special vibe at that school!! Also know a very talented and happy MT girl at Marymount. We are still considering it. These are excellent places. This whole process in a mind f***!! We shall stay strong <3!!
…And Hartt!
Thanks, @laylamom! All those comments to make me feel better! I really appreciate the support. Thanks!
hi @actorparent1 I’m so sorry! I was pulling for you. I know in the hearts of hearts, our kids will get where they are supposed to be. I have faith that your daughter will love whatever school she ends up at. Speaking of. A dancer from Chicago may very well end up at Marymount Manhattan. I hear they have great programs too!
@actorparent1 - hugs to you. I’m sorry about Purchase! Hoping Hartt comes through. Your D has some options. The U of Arts does sound good. Good vibes to you both.
@laylamom - Did you mean NYU is releasing at 6pm tonight? thanks for any info
GL to everyone waiting on schools that will be releasing results soon.
@abcdeabcde My son just got a yes from NYU
Congratulations to your son @emf1959! My D graduated in May so please let me know if you have any questions!
