Class of 2021 (Discussing application season, sharing, venting)

For those of you asking about Acting majors closely tied to MT - Wright State is another school with a lot of crossover. All Acting & MT majors audition for all shows. Currently the male lead in 9 to 5 is an Acting major, and an MT major was Daisy in The Great Gatsby last year. Acting majors can also continue with dance and voice lessons.

My D just now got an email from CalArts that her admissions decision is available on their application portal. Check your emails and portals!

Good crossover programs at Marymount Manhattan, UArts, Roosevelt…

Chapman decisions are out!

Were they accepted? @janine1

OMG no emails here yet from Chapman or CalArts!

Yes @puffpink it was good news! My D got an acceptance at CalArts!

@avonweasley @Janine1 I see nothing on either portal and no email…can you tell me where to look? Or else they just haven’t input hers yet. :((

.Congratulations to your D @Janine1 !

Thats great! @janine1 and @marg928 when was your audition date?

Definitely @marg928 - After my D got an email this evening telling her to check the application portal, she logged in and saw that a new section had appeared. On the portal at the very top there has always been a blue bar that says “Welcome to your VIP page!” with a few lines of text under that. This new section is another blue bar right underneath all that saying “Admissions Decision”, and then under that is some text saying “Your admission decision is ready” along with a link to click on. Clicking on the link brought her to a new page where she had to reenter her login information in order to see the decision letter.

@puffpink My D auditioned for CalArts at Chicago Unifides the first week of February

Thanks @Janine1 there is no change on my D’s portal. She auditioned on 1/21 at NY Unifieds. Congrats to your D! Hopefully we will hear soon because I’m about to cry…this is so frustrating! Nothing on the Chapman portal either…so much for Early Action!

@marg928 Chapman BFA decisions for both screen acting and theatre performance went out a while ago… Possible they might redirect to BA.

@anitapitamom my D emailed her admissions person at Chapman on 2/21 and she was told they would be sending out their second round of acceptances in the next week or so.

@marg928 Oh okay, that’s great!

@Janine1 is your D going to Guthrie callback weekend?

@marg928 I got an email from them this morning saying that an update had been posted on my application status page. I went to check and there was the official letter

Who knows what’s going on with the CalArts notifications, @marg928! Maybe they’re coming in waves too? It sounds like @avonweasley got their email half a day before my D. I’m keeping my fingers crossed for your daughter! Yes my D is going to Minneapolis for the Guthrie callback. Our Ds will be together this time tomorrow.

@Janine1 @marg928 maybe it’s because I’m in a different time zone? I’m around 13 hours ahead of California time, maybe they coordinate letters that way? But decisions are on a rolling basis so I’m sure you’ll hear something soon
