<p>Good luck scardeedad! He can always audition and see where it lands him- you never know. The one problem my D had when she auditioned as a transfer is that while she had good results with acceptances, it was hard to pin the various schools down on what level she would transfer as. Most of them said she would “most likely” enter as a freshman or sophomore, but did not want to guarantee anything until after she committed to the school, and they then totally reviewed her transcripts. It made the decision process harder as it was hard to compare costs and time left in school. Fortunately her top 2 choices did tell her where she would end up, so she was able to make an intelligent decision. </p>
<p>One other thing your son should consider is that the audition season is pretty hectic because of all of the preparation time and time involved with the actual auditions, including travel. If he decides to audition, he might want to adjust his class load at AU so that auditions don’t impact his academics as much. Have fun!</p>
