Class of 2020 (sharing, venting, etc)

If Mich offers went out today that would be consistent with last year. They went out the second Wednesday/Thursday of March last year too. It takes them a couple of days to call all their offers.

Congratulations to those that got acceptances from BW today. S got a rejection, but we expected it. He wasn’t able to audition in person so he just submitted a video. We knew the chances were slim.

And it is a NO from BW. Daughter is unfazed, said she didn’t expect to get in there. Her dad isn’t happy, though. He loved BW.

Thanks @sleepymom and @destiny95

@deelight Congrats to you and your daughter! Wishing everyone else good news too.

The Michigan portals are updated with results.

No from U of Michigan- bummer

My daughter didn’t hear from BW yesterday at all - no email, no call, but she did talk to some of the other current BW students who auditioned with her and they didn’t hear anything either. Perhaps today? The waiting is the hardest part, but will be part of their lives if they are in this field, so it’s good practice to develop some coping strategies.

Does anyone know if it’s a good sign that a decision was made for one program but not the other at Michigan? In other words, were all nos definitely posted yesterday?

Sooo, does anyone know why so many of these schools send their acceptances/waitlists before their denials? I feel like that just amps up the anxiety for the kids who learn that acceptances went out last night via email but they didn’t get one. Why make them suffer another/several more days to get their rejection in the mail or some other method?

HOw do you access the Michigan portal??

@MTMOM16 - The Michigan portal is the Wolverine account the kids receive.

@WTXMom Agree that I think schools should send acceptances at the same time they send denials…all admissions decisions ought to be sent at the same time. Many of my kids’ schools did this.

I think denials should be in the form of a snail mail letter. You would think they would want you to get a hard copy of it , not to rub it in but just to make sure it doesn’t get missed in portals etc…

A no from Michigan, four no’s a waitlist and an acceptance. waiting on 10 schools, and two are non audition. it’s all going to be okay.

Does anyone think Emerson could post decisions today - or is it definitely next week?

@allthatjazz12345 - That is exactly where my d is at 1 yes, 1 wl, and 4 no. We only have 6 left to hear from though! I am trying to focus on the yes and know that she has a great Bfa program if everything else falls through!

@allthatjazz12345 @sleepymom, Same here! One acceptance, one waitlist and four no! I keep having to remind myself that we are only halfway through decisions. Good luck with the rest!

@sleepymom a student told me definitely next week! So let’s see…

Big congrats to your daughter (and to you) - missed seeing your acceptances post earlier @deelight !
