Class of 2024 MT Artistic Acceptance Notifications: How/When/Where

@bokunkas Congrats!! What great news!

Did your D do Otterbein for MT, acting, or both?

Thank you - we are very thrilled!

Thank you! He received an email through Acceptd. We are so excited!

@Looney2020 – just a bit of comic relief. My D ran into some friends of hers at Chicago Unifieds (boys and girls), and someone made the joke: 1) Girls in MT – I’ve had voice, dance, and acting lessons for 15 years. I hope to get the part of ‘Tree #3’ in the school musical. 2) Boys in MT – I wish the teacher would stop texting me, begging me to take the lead in the upcoming musical. LOL. Of course it’s not really like this, but it IS funny. I have 1 girl and 3 boys. The girl has been trying to get her brothers interested in MT. Hasn’t worked yet, but maybe someday!

@WDWMom - D did the acting audition for Otterbein.

My S got an acceptance today from CCM too for BFA Musical Theatre!!! An email very well written and welcoming!!! A formal letter will be mailed once (if not already) school paperwork is completed.

Congrats to your S @chenggang ! Great news!

Maybe you know people who are doing acting and have heard one way or another, but the only people I know who are going for Otterbein are strictly MT. I was thinking maybe they are only sending messages to MT people? IDK? If you know of people who are doing are doing Acting and have heard, you might give them a call.

Congrats!!!

Great news @chenggang !

Does anyone know of any female decisions sent by CCM yesterday, or just the guys so far?

@SingerDancerMom, it sounds like all guys for now. One of my daughter’s friends (male) also heard from CCM yesterday.

As the mom of a boy who is in his 5th year of doing the school musical, its not totally off base.
Although in our high school even the boy spots are somewhat competitive but no where near the girls.

Montclair is updating portals! Chicago Unified audition, female. Waitlisted
(did not get warm and fuzzies from the audition so a waitlist is an unexpected surprise)

Can confirm CCM notification perhaps just boys? My S also received a yes last night via email. Thrilling news to say the least. Still a bit shocked b/c there are so many talented young people out there. Good luck, good vibes to all.

@SingerDancerMom did you have to accept academically first before seeing results of audition to Montclair?
