@HopefulMom2020 taking a gap year was the best decision we could have made. He had time to breathe, study schools and work in his craft.

My S got a call from Shenandoah about 45 minutes ago. He is so excited! It’s one of his top choices and he really felt like he connected with the faculty at his audition.

612

Congrats to those receiving ShenCo calls tonight!

613

D accepted to San Diego State University (SDSU) for BA in SDSU Theater Arts Performance/ Pre-Major! Anyone know about the program here?

614

Rejection emails from Shenandoah today too. Gotta say we were stunned by this rejection. Kevin Covert gave him his business card, then he got an email that they were very interested a couple of weeks ago. Today a rejection, not even waitlist. Very surprised. Hope this doesn’t mean we are starting a “no” streak.

615

Anyone know when Muhlenberg sends out its notifications?

616

@32barMom . I can understand being kind and encouraging in the audition room, but do not send emails to kids after the fact if you are not putting them on the very short list. I am so sorry . Small comfort but D got a no as well.

617

@lojosmo Just a correction to the IU master list. There are no auditions in March. Their last audition was February 16.

618

D got an no email this evening from IU Bloomington. This one stung. It was her favorite audition and felt like she connected there. Plus, I’m an alum (no more alum $$ from me IU ;))! She has 4 solid BFA yeses right now, but somehow those “no’s” still bring tears. I do wish they would send the no emails first or at least everything at the same time.

619

@32barMom and @jbrown I am so sorry. We had the Shenandoah “no” a couple weeks ago, and it was (and still is) heartbreaking for my D.
