Did everone hear from Otterbein?

@MTmominCanada Congratulations! Curious about Syracuse, as it seems a very early notification and haven’t heard of any MT acceptances before mid-March in past years; was it Early Decision? And does that then bind you to Syracuse if you’ve chosen that option? (not quite sure how the early action/early decision stuff works). I don’t know if international students get anything early (we didn’t, but that doesn’t mean anything)
I heard there may have been some early BFA acting notifications…
And hi from Canada

@thespis1 Otterbein. There are 4 of us cc’ers posted under Otterbein BFA MT. We know another classmate (boy) of my S who is #5. So out of 8 MT spots, 5 have been accounted for - and how odd that two of them are from the same town in KS. There are also 8 BFA acting spots that we don’t have any info on. My S and his classmate would probably not want to go to the same college so one or both could open up a waitlist spot. We are waiting for 3 OMG schools plus one tied with Otterbein otherwise we’ll be at Otterbein next year. Waiting on 3 of his other schools too and cancelled one audition but they are out of consideration when stacked up against Otterbein.

@jpkcmo a friends D was accepted to Otterbein for BFA Acting. So that’s one spot for a girl filled.

My D also has an offer for Otterbein MT! We had been in phone tag for 2 days, but finally got the confirmation.

@Jpkcmo Congratulations! That’s exciting news! I heard from a girl that was accepted that all official notifications were going out Friday. Yet we have not heard anything though still under consideration status. Another girl got an email hearing no.

We received Otterbein waitlist for BFA Acting on Friday via Acceptd.

So the Ithaca notification is snail mail ( and portal too) . No calls?
Has anyone gotten the mail package ? Large or small envelope?!
Not sure whether daughter will check portal or wait at the mail box?
Aren’t y’all proud of me for not sneaking into her portal? Actually I don’t have the login info ?

My daughter just got a yes email from the University of Utah, so they must be sending them out now.

@CanaDad
It isn’t under early acceptance. They do call it “conditional” on submitting the financial documents prior to mid April to prove we can finance the first year but it is an offer of admission to the MT program

@kbreedlove how many slots are there? I thought 8 girls and 8 boys for just MT (16) or is 16 for both acting (8) and MT (8)?

We were told 8 MT and 8 acting. Boy / girl mix is close to 50/50 but not always. And the programs crossover quite a bit. Their senior showcase is 11 students and a mix of both BFA Acting and MT.

Good information. Thank you. Very selective, indeed.

@MTmominCanada
That’s terrific! Congratulations, she must’ve really impressed them!
And oh, the financial statements. Yikes. Pray for some major world events that boost the Canadian dollar. At least for the next 4 years.

@jpkmo - my D had 2 HS classmates in the BFA at Otterbein (girls) - so it happens that they get multiples from same area!

My S found out today that he is admitted Ohio MT

Sorry, should have said S found out about Utah BFA MT today.

@“boola boola” my D did as well.
She really liked that audition and the faculty.

@cloud7or8 congrats!!! Crossing fingers for generous talent $$ there
