@puffpink @marg928 My D is waiting to hear from CalArts too. Their website says they’ll be notifying applications about decisions between March 1st and “early April”. So we’re in the zone today!
Oops! I realized after posting that it was a different person on the thread who applied to Belmont. D just called though. She just got a phone call from them saying she was offered a spot for mt!
Thanks @LAM2017 and @myloves. Trying to get more information while we wait out the last few decisions.
Congratulations @NicMusic!
Congratulations @nicmusic! That’s great! The Belmont program is a really good program.
@remartin67, we are doing the same thing!
My D booked her second paying job! It’s a book cover for Scholastic shooting tomorrow 
So we decided to put in a last minute application to AADA just in case. D will be auditioning in NY on 3/18. She hadn’t applied to any 2 year conservatories which was probably a mistake anyway.
@marg928 – Many of the 2 year conservatories are rolling admissions. She could try to audition for another one when she is there, but the nice thing about AADA is the dorms. Most of the others you wind up having to find your own living arrangements. Plus AADA gives you an Associates Degree while the others do certificates. At least that is the case for Neighborhood Playhouse.
Thanks for the info @remartin67! I was wondering about the housing because we looked into the summer program last year at AMDA and the fact that there was no housing is what turned us off.
I just got an email response from Rachel Park at CalArts. She said they will be releasing their decisions this week into next! Trying to get some info on merit/talent scholarships.
Just got my rejection letter from UNCSA. I knew it was coming, but there was still that small shred of hope… They did encourage me to reapply, so that’s good. On to callbacks!
So sorry to hear that, @Isaroo! Did you end up finding a way to attend both your callbacks this weekend?
sorry @Isaroo my daughter took that one the hardest. On to callbacks!
@Janine1 Yes, I’m flying from Minneapolis super early Sunday morning and then arriving hopefully around mid-day to Rutgers and staying until Monday. I have to miss about half a day of both, but better than missing the entire callback!
Sorry @Isaroo , that’s a rough one! BAL at callbacks!
Rachel Park from CalArts said everyone is automatically considered for merit based scholarships as well. @Isaroo I would love for you to meet my D this weekend!
That’s so great, @Isaroo! Way to make that happen!
@marg928 Thanks for the info about CalArts! Did Rachel Park say how the notifications would be sent? (email, snail mail?)
@Janine1 I should have asked but I didn’t! :((
Two years ago they send an email and then a physical copy thru the mail.
