<p>The list is growing and will gain in length as we progress through March, April and May. When a choice of school is made, please send me a PM- if you can, that way the thread can be contained a bit- and let me know. I will then place an star next to line indicating “Final Decision”.
If you can’t yet send PMs or just plain forget and post it here, that’s fine too!
Bon Chance!</p>
<p>Although I do like seeing the excited posts from parents and students, and being able to post a congratulatory note to them 
</p>
<p>Maybe we should make a separate congratulations thread?</p>
<p>My son has been accepted as a piano performance major at the following schools:</p>
<p>University of North Carolina School of the Arts (B.M.)
University of North Carolina at Greensboro (B.M.)
Shenandoah Conservatory (B.M.)</p>
<p>We’re very happy and excited as this process unfolds. Thanks to all for your encouragement and advice!</p>
<p>Let’s include the “Kudos” in this thread and then I’ll just do a separate one for Final Decisions, OK?</p>

<p>If you audition for the band and get a letter saying you have been recommended to the music department, does that mean you will definitely be admitted to the university? It’s Butler at UT. </p>
<p>I can’t say for sure, but “recommended to the music department” sounds like they liked your audition and are letting the music department know that. Hang in there until you get the an official letter!</p>
<p>When my son auditioned at BSOM at UT, we were told that if you get into the music department and your academics meet the minimum requirements then you’d be accepted to the school. They said that as long as you are in top half of your class, it shouldn’t be a problem. And if you’re not and they really want you, they’d try to work with admissions to get you admitted.</p>
<p>My son has been accepted to UT (Butler School of Music) for percussion performance (B.M.).</p>
<p>One decision down, three to go.</p>
<p>It’s a great feeling to have an acceptance in hand, wcbandmom!</p>

<p>Hello Everyone!</p>
<p>this is my first post to College Confidential, so please forgive me if i am posting in the wrong form. </p>
<p>I recently completed my auditions for the undergrad voice programs at:</p>
<p>Eastman
Peabody
CS Long beach
SDSU
Fullerton College (California)</p>
<p>I have an awesome family, But, they don’t “get music”, so I have been doing all this on my own. </p>
<p>My top school is Eastman, and since I assume many of you have had “experience” with friends or family, I am wondering if you know when Eastman usually releases their acceptance Email
( I understand that they can do so as early as March 15th, But I would like to know when they actually do so. Is it much later? Close to that Date ? etc)</p>
<p>I have this question because I am required to give an “answer” to Fullerton College ( my second choice), By march 28th.</p>
<p>BTW
I am so happy people like you are online! When I was traveling alone, I was able to get some great advice from the multitude of threads online.</p>
<p>I trully grateful
THANKYOU</p>
<p>I am questioning Fullerton " requiring" you to accept so early. They know full well that April 1 is the notification date for the conservatories and many other music programs. My D is applying to both public, private and conservatories. Although they all have different notification dates, May 1 is the deadline for all of them for her to accept. They may be trying to pressure you. </p>
<p>Yes, I agree with Scubachick. At a couple of places my son auditioned at they told us that some schools pressure kids to accept early. However all undergraduates have until May 1 to accept. I found the following on the Fullerton website.</p>
<p>What is the deadline to accept admission and pay the enrollment deposit?</p>
<p>Top of page</p>
<p>The admission acceptance and deposit must be received by the deadlines below.</p>
<p>SPRING 2014 DEADLINES</p>
<p>Transfers: November 15th
Note: Applicants admitted after November 1st have two weeks from the date of admission, printed on the admit letter, to accept their admission offer.</p>
<p>FALL 2014 DEADLINES</p>
<p>First-Time Freshmen: May 1st
Note: Applicants admitted after April 15th have two weeks from the date of admission, printed on the admit letter, to accept their admission offer.</p>
<p>Transfers: June 1st
Note: Applicants admitted after May 15th have two weeks from the date of admission, printed on the admit letter, to accept their admission offer.</p>
<p>Is it more perhaps about a scholarship deadline? Sometimes schools will put pressure on for scholarship acceptance (which is a round-about way of getting you to commit to their school basically though) so that they can free up those monies for someone else earlier than May 1. Other than that, I think NASM schools need to adhere to the May 1 deadline.</p>
<p>Hello all !
@clarimom yes , I was informed that I received a small scholarship. Since tuition is so small , is covers almost half ! </p>
<p>I emailed admin , and they told me that they have a list of students they have already approved to accept . however , since the school is impacted , they can not accept all the students . </p>
<p>When a student denies admission , the next student receives a admittance email . </p>
<p>They were very nice to me , however they very nicely asked for a reply ASAP ( in the email it said , "we would like to hear from by the end of month ") </p>
<p>I don’t think many student who audition for Fullerton , auditioned out of state . Therefore they may not always think about that </p>
<p>Should I inform them that I am waiting for eastman ( and therefore they are not my first choice ) ? Or is that against my best interest ? I just don’t know how the politics work with all this . </p>
<p>Also THANKYOU :
BCVIOLINMOM & scuba chick </p>
