In NYC, no Roosevelt walk-ins (full for Chicago too). The University of Miami took walk-ins.
On Sunday am, Otterbein was telling people they had walk-in space possibly in LA but were full for Chicago.
- One can cross-reference Unifieds Dates on each colleges website. Many schools aren’t part of the 20 or so listed on Unifieds website but are at these studios in nyc or hotels during Chicago/LA. So there but listed under their own university’s audition dates website vs Unifieds. Basically many more colleges find ways to be holding auditions in NYC/Chicago/LA the unified weekends.
This list is a work in progress to be maintained as more recent information is determined. Please update as needed.
If you have ANY updates do not post them as a comment - Carefully copy and paste the ENTIRE LAST LIST AND THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

My D did a walk-in with Temple at Chicago last year. She liked them and got asked to do their dance call but it didn’t work in our schedule, so it came to nothing. I would always check about that when doing walk-ins.
If an audition was not offered after pre screens, is it still possible to audition at Unifieds?
Yes, some of them accept walk-ins after a prescreen rejection, and some of them don’t. It may say something on their sign-up board if it wasn’t in an email from them.
I am bumping this up since schools are already starting to book their Unifieds auditions. Since there were no Unfieds last year (in person), to recap:
Some schools are “official” Unifieds schools and some are schools who attend and have auditions nearby (or in Chicago, often in the same hotel space). This list is to indicate who you know is coming and whether they are “Unified” or “non-Unified” auditions, which Unified cities they would be attending and if they will be doing walk-ins or not. Since the pandemic, I realize much has changed so many of these schools may not be attending and some new ones may be there as well. This proved to be VERY helpful for auditioners and their parents in years past! I stripped out all previous information except school name for the ones in the past EXCEPT for the ones I absolutely know will be there. I’m not sure anyone knows what walk-ins are happening at this point, but please update ongoing! If you see a name on here and learn that they are NOT attending Unifieds this year, please remove!!
