CollegeDadofTwo (d2)
Carnegie Mellon University, Vocal Performance, BFA (Music School acceptance only, awaiting CMU Proper decision next week)
It’s been a while since I posted but I’ve been accepted to Ohio State University for my DMA in Voice. 
Congrats to everyone on their acceptances so far. I haven’t posted in a while because we have been waiting and waiting… but finally…a letter in the mail today. Music school acceptance from Carnegie Mellon for VP as well (thumbs up to your d2 @CollegeDadofTwo ). A step in the right direction. Now hopefully the academics measure up to the Tartan standards. I know it was only a week or so but it seemed like forever without any news from anywhere. She has a few yes’s in her pocket but none of her top choices yet. My d was denied by CCM back in February but accepted into UC itself and has been getting inundated with emails and phone calls and mail from them, so it has been very frustrating for her not hearing about any of her top choice music programs. It is nice for her to have this acknowledgement for now. How many days til April 1st?
11 days until April 1. This is torture.
Today, received letter that my son was accepted to CMU for piano performance by the music dept. but still has to be accepted by the University.
Congrats to your daughter as well @intune . Our daughters sound a little bit similar in that she did not get through the pre-screen at CCM, but was accepted by UC (and they keep bombarding her as well). If d2 is accepted at CMU proper, it becomes a gamechanger as it disrupts what we thought would be her final list to choose from. It will come down to financial aid as there is no way we can afford the sticker price or even 50 or 60% of the sticker price, and she has great merit based awards from the other schools she has been accepted to. The way it was explained to me that the majority of CMU aid, and it starts with this, is need-based aid. If that is not enough (and I will not let her accept any aid package that includes student loans), they said to show them scholarship/aid letters from other schools, and they will see what they can then do financially to compete.
Another concern you might be able to shed some light on @intune is campus safety. My wife did some online research and found that CMU has one of the worst campus safety ratings?
I am also wondering if your daughter is the friend my daughter has from a summer program last year that she would room with if both got in?
Hi! Could you lucky admitted students/parents also post when each school sends out the first round of financial offers? Thanks!
Note: I am going to hold off on including those who have “music” acceptances but not “academic” ones simply because without both, the student is not accepted to the entire desired program that was applied to. When both acceptances come in, please post them in correct form and I will then transfer them to the full list.
Please, when posting, make it one line. Narratives are nice, but it’s difficult for me to sift through paragraphs of prose to figure out what your student has done and what school it is. Thanks!
@coloratura_as- Great to hear from you and congratulations! I remember way back when!
@TrumpDad- You didn’t respond, so I’m going to assume that the acceptances are for you even though your user name makes me feel like it might be otherwise!

Sorry Guys. Unbeknownst to us, Ohio State’s admissions is completely separate from their music admit. Denied for academic. Just found out to our surprise. Thats ok. He has great options still and made a friend in the cello world.
Sorry cellomom, that’s such a bummer… I think many of us have experienced that same thing 
Its ok. There are so many great teachers. Choosing is difficult. The positive thing is one less choice.
@cellomom6 You have a wonderful attitude.
