Does anyone have experience with getting audition-apps-fees waived? Need help and guidance please
I believe the online apps for certain schools and also while filling out the apps on the Common app, there is an option to request the waiver.
I don’t know about audition fees but a waiver for an application fee used to have to go through your school guidance counsellor. This may vary school to school but it’s worth checking with the GC to inquire.
What about the audition fees? Do you have to prove financial need for each program separately?
Some schools will waive audition fees if you qualify for an application fee waiver. Though not necessarily all.
In looking at a couple of the schools websites that do have audition fee waivers- you need to submit other information to the schools individually/separately.
Thank you very much! But only a few schools had that information on the website as far as I could find. Did you contact the general admissions or theatre program to find out?
For the ones that don’t have it on the website I would contact the theatre dept and inquire.
I believe Point Park has no application fee. UArts waived our fee when I told them my nephew had gone there (for a completely different major). Don’t know if any of that helps.
Correct for Point Park. The admissions counselor emphasized it during our tour!
