Class of 2023 MT Artistic Acceptance Notifications: How/When/Where

College Majors Musical Theater Major
21

@El-Cee my daughter auditioned in Chicago and on Fri received an email just saying thank you for auditioning and we are working on getting out admission notices in a timely fashion. Anyone else receive this email???

22

@el-cee If they follow last year’s pattern, we heard the bulk of the no’s and some yes’s from friends the first Friday after their Unifieds in February and then weekly no’s and yes’s every Friday, with the last ones cut loose on the last Friday of the month.

23

@LIMTMom my D received the same email from CCM and she auditioned at Chicago Unifieds too. I think it’s probably a standard form letter?

24

I should add that for ccm last year in Chicago there was an acting professor there, another person from the department (dance?) and an alumni who was performing in the Chicago Hamilton and the MT people were not there but they videotaped the dance call and the audition.

25

At my D’s on-site audition at WCSU - it would be 2 weeks after their final audition date of the season - March 2nd - for all notifications to go out.

26

I said it earlier, and someone fixed it, but now it appears to be incorrect again. Point Park does not notify by a portal. Emails will go out mid-March to everyone, accepted or denied. Accepted students then get a follow-up packet in the mail.

27

Pace has called in the past
 not sure about last year?? Can anyone chime in?

28

Re: Pace phone calls
 this year at auditions, they said that they like to call, but the calls happen during faculty down-time, so it sounded like a phone call doesn’t always happen for acceptances. It was also said that they like to have the acceptance letters sent out by spring break, which this year starts 3/16, but there didn’t seem to be a hard deadline, just what they are aiming for.

University of Michigan calls accepted students. Last year this started on 2-28, the year prior it was early March. Texas State calls their accepted students on a rolling basis starting after auditions are completed. Last year Carnegie Mellon notifed late March, I think around March 25.

the list was edited to reflect that Viterbo notifications come out via email on 3/12, but my daughter was notified that she was accepted one week after NY Unifieds, so it’s definitely a rolling admission.

@SoCalPops

Each UC campus is different re: notifications. Because, of course. When the time gets closer you can follow their individual campus feeds on CC because theater kids are notified at the same time as everyone else. The agony and the ecstasy. Also, their servers crash or you can’t log into the admission portal at peak times, because everyone is logged in, constantly refreshing. Super fun!

Some of the smaller campuses will admit first in early March. For the BFA/BM MT schools: UCLA was mid March, will probably be 3/15. UCI had some glitches (their applications spiked) last year and decisions rolled out slowly over several days in late March. I think they were the last.

39

Can anyone supply info for Montclair and/or Hartt? Temple still has on campus auditions on 3/3 so the 2/27 date can’t be right unless they have rolling acceptances?

40

Thanks @DramaLlama18 Hopefully UCI will better manage their servers this year!

USC I estimate will release on 3/22. I am basing that on what I gleaned from last year’s threads for the BFA Acting. Maybe best to list them as 3/22-4/1 estimated.
