@MTmama42 my son auditioned February at Chicago Unified and still have not heard from Ball State for MT but he did receive a nice academic acceptance.
Per the MT admissions office earlier this week (I called), they were on Spring Break last week and resumed calls this week. Should receive a call or email soon… That was Tuesday 3/12. Fingers crossed for everyone still waiting to hear!!!
D received call with priority waitlist- any thoughts on likelihood of getting offer?
@teacher124 my daughter is a current sophomore MT major at BSU who came off the priority waitlist her year. There are several others in her class who also did. If this is her top choice, I would have her let them know.
I’m assuming no news by now is a NO. Does anyone know if any rejection notifications have gone out yet? Wondering when the final word will go out for remaining no’s
D emailed Andrea Sadler to see her status because we have spring break next week. Turns out they had emailed her Mar 1 and had a typo in the email address. Doesn’t hurt to check.
@mtmom3girls thank you, good to know! Was she accepted?
Re-directed and told to audition next fall from the BA program for the BFA.
Last spring, my daughter was told she was on the priority waitlist. I reached out to Andrea, a couple of times ( a few weeks apart) to let her know P was still interested. By the time signing day rolled around, she signed with another school. She did however get the call, the following day. We politely told the other school of P coming off the waitlist at BSU - and that she would be attending Ball State. She also heard from Ithaca after signing day as well. Wait until the last possible moment to sign with anyone, but know it’s okay to withdraw, and go with a school your child is crazy about (if they come off the waitlist, after signing day). BSU didn’t need to grab P, but they did. This is the largest BFA M.T. class they’ve had, so they wanted her. We couldn’t be more thankful - and P is thriving. We live in Oregon, so this was quite a commitment. I just came back from Muncie yesterday - after spending nearly a week there, so I could see P in her first college musical. They are currently performing Gypsy, and let me tell you - it was FANTASTIC. I can be quite the critic - and I was highly impressed. I saw it 3 times while I was there! Congrats to those who accepted BSU as their school - and good luck to those still waiting to hear. Also, Johnson B (Schimidt - Wilson), is a fantastic dorm (LLC) It is home away from home! Best wishes!
@dramamama63 , planning to visit with my D soon, just curious how big is the current Freshman class?
@dramamama63 we were at Ball State yesterday and saw Gypsy. My son was accepted to MT and he was visiting. The show was great, if you don’t mind sharing who was your daughter?
Any movement on the waitlist?
I got the call i was on priority hold a few weeks ago. Im visiting this week and have a meeting with Andrea. I hope to get off hold!
Kristiern1 - Just found your question regarding Gypsy (sorry about that). Phoebe was a Hollywood Blonde. She was one with a big goofy smile on stage, and lots of energy. She loves to perform.
