I tried to add to full list…but a pop up said there are too many characters in body of list.
Maybe you should all list the dates auditioned and accepted under the other thread that shows notification methods. Might open this list up.
Please don’t add them to the RD notification date/method thread. That is meant to give very specific and simple information in answer to the question “When and how did people find out last year?” That’s why it has only one date - just the first RD admission reported. People ask this question all the time and it has been answered in a scattered way that made it difficult for me to find answers.
On the other hand, there is a character limit, and it is nice to be able to have the full list of acceptances fit into a post as in other years. Other years did not list audition date and notification dates on the Acceptance threads. So, one idea is to eliminate those there as bisouu mentions, in any case.
If it were my kid’s year, I wouldn’t care which date someone had auditioned or where they auditioned for the school. In terms of when they learned of the acceptance, in many cases, people post these acceptances as they come in (so the date of the post is pretty accurate of notification). I realize some people add to this list at the very end of the process. But in the past, one could get an idea of when notifications for a school started to come because this list would indicate new acceptances around that time. Just saying that it worked fine in the past to simply list acceptances on the Acceptance threads. Not sure it is broke, if you know what I mean.
I’m with vocal. As someone who has spent a lot of time seeking out the dates and methods of notifications from last year, I think the format will be extremely helpful for next year’s class. This format is “payin’ it forward” and I hope there’s some way to keep it like it is now.
I think vocal was saying he/she preferred not to put this information in the Notification thread where he/she prefers JUST the very first RD notification, not any that happen on subsequent dates. I don’t think Vocal was commenting on what to have on THIS thread. He/she seemed to be responding to bisouu’s suggestion to move the notification information on THIS thread to the NOTIFICATION thread.
My suggestion is to remove the notification stuff here since you have a NOTIFICATION thread and allow this thread to post all acceptances which it can’t do with the character limit because too much stuff is in the post besides one’s acceptances. OR a compromise might be to eliminate the audition dates and keep the notification information. That would get rid of some characters. I don’t see why it is critical to know the date someone auditioned. It typically doesn’t matter in the scheme of things.
Using the latter suggestion, the list entries might be edited to look like this:
name, BFA MT, phone 3/7
name, BFA MT, portal 3/3
name, BA MT email 2/21
Why don’t we start by replacing the word “auditioned” with the letter “A” an the word “accepted” with the letter “B” and indicate the meaning of “A” & “B” at the top. That will fee up lots of characters!
@lojosmo, can you fix it for us? You seem to be the most adept at keeping this thread in shape. I don’t think any of us would mind the editing of the information to keep the tread viable.
Each member of the group will have preferences about what info should be available and in what format. I’m with soozie on dropping the audition date/method because that’s in the past. But the first acceptance date & method for each school provides current applicants with a signpost that gives some hint as to what to expect. It’s helpful to screen out rare occurrences like “admitted from pre-screen”, “admitted at audition/interview”, “admitted as we left the parking lot” and so on. Those are anecdotes people love to share and find exciting. “Admission notification under normal circumstances” is useful to more people.
Thanks for the compliment…I’ll give it a shot! but ww might wind up eliminating some of that and going to the format soozievt suggests as the list grows…
Likewise, the parent’s handle, and the date and location of audition are of limited utility to me but others may be seeking that level of detail. It does seem to play into the frequently debunked notion that there’s a discernible pattern.
Thanks for the time you devote, lojosmo!
Just another thought on the audition dates and audition locations…keep in mind that conventional wisdom is that the date you audition and whether you audition on campus or at Unifieds…doesn’t matter in terms of your odds of acceptance. That is another reason why I don’t think that information is needed here and if anything, kinda gives the wrong message on that point. I understand that if space allows, knowing notification dates/methods is helpful (though there is a notification thread already and again, the date someone enters their acceptance on the list typically correlates pretty closely to when they were notified). So, I guess I’m saying if you have to eliminate something, start with eliminating audition dates and audition location. These are just suggestions. It’s not my child’s year, though I know what has worked and been typical on this forum for years and so just putting it out there! The main thing is that I think most of us would hate to not allow the acceptance list to grow (and it WILL grow!!).
Maybe I garbled it but I was trying to say I support eliminating granular detail from this list - that in fact that’s a big part of what I was trying to achieve with the other list. Soozie’s suggestion (A= and B=) will help streamline if people feel they must have that info. But as S says (and I was trying to say) providing that information implies that it carries some meaning beyond the anecdotal and that idea is knocked down every time it comes up. Why encourage it?
Just to clarify, Addicted2MT is the one who suggested A= and B=. I suggested eliminating everything but the acceptances (first choice) or if notification dates and methods are really wanted (even though there is a notification thread), then simplify down to: name, degree, method (call, portal, email, snail mail) and date.
