Well this was odd… It’s 3:30am my time, and I suddenly woke up and decided to check my D’s University of Michigan portal, and there was an updated decision link!
@mychildsslave hope its good news and one of her top choices!
Thanks for the information. I just checked my D’s portal and it was a no from Michigan. I have a feeling that’s going to be the trend from here on. But we have a good one to fall back on so, yay!
Hi Everyone! Found out this am after speaking to a CO 2017 parent that her S was accepted to Rutgers BFA without the callback. I’ve read that this happens. I don’t understand their rhyme or reason but you can still keep the faith
I also received a no from Michigan really early in the morning. Were people who were rejected to UNCSA’s portals deactivated?
@ginaf1102 How was Guthrie callback weekend?
how were you all notified of Michigan? if I didn’t get this notification is it NOT a no you think?
What is a portal? I have been depending on my son to tell me if he hears anything. Also, does anyone know
if the school changes the acceptance status on Naviance or does my son update it? Thank you and good luck to all your kids!!
@emf1959 I don’t know about the school changing it. We log in to change what the decision is and the school counselor receives the notification afterwards.
@bretzki5 Hi. When the kids applied they were sent a login to check the status of their application. If you log into that, then you will see the notification. My D did not receive an email (yet). I checked the portal and it was a no.
@owensfolks - thanks so much for asking! She enjoyed the weekend but knows for sure she will not be admitted to the Guthrie program. She had a hard time assimilating - she was exhausted the whole time and a little out of sorts. The biggest benefit was that she knows that she doesn’t want to be a plane ride away. The kids at the callback (90 of them!) were super nice and helped validated the Hartt program for her (being close to home, it can’t be good - was her thought).
Have a good day virtual friends. ;
Re: Michigan, I am sorry to hear the No-s. Did you get an e-mail? Or just go to Portal. I am under instruction to wait for her.
My son is at school so I don’t want to ask him to look.
Hi. After approval from my D, I checked her Michigan portal and it was a No for Acting. Oh well. Hoping someone gets good news!
@ginaf1102 - sorry to hear about the Michigan decision. At the same time, just knowing that she wants to be closer to (vs. FAR from) home is a great thing for your D to realize (on her own). My S has been voicing similar thoughts. The best program
…The best program is where a kid is happy.
@ginaf1102 , it’s good that the Guthrie callback weekend clarified what she wants and doesn’t want. My D didn’t apply there for exactly that reason: she didn’t want to be a plane ride from home. All our schools were within an 8-hour drive from home (except UNCSA, which would have been a 10-hour drive.)
I’m glad she’s getting more enthusiastic about Hartt! I wish SO much we had been able to audition there in December and have an early answer! We still have a few weeks before we find out.
D loved the weekend at Guthrie. It confirmed for her it is the type of program she wants. She feels the talent level was SO very high she’s not sure of her chances. She really enjoyed seeing the shows and participating in the master classes. I know kids who have gone in the past and came back saying the same thing @ginaf1102. It would be a plane ride for D as well so we shall see.
@FourStars Is the Portal the Wolverine Access?
Yes, it is Wolverine Access.
Re: Ithaca. Nothing in mail today or yesterday and no change in Portal. Auditioned in November. Thoughts?
