Musical Theater Prescreens - Class of 2022 (process/response)

If it makes anyone feel any better, my daughter submitted everything to Ithaca last month but has not heard from them either.

Well, I feel better about no word form Ithaca. Still waiting but we got a yes from Texas State today! That is 7 yeses, just waiting on ACU and Ithaca.

My daughter submitted her Ithaca application via common app and heard back within about two weeks about passing her prescreens. This was in mid-late October. Perhaps they run in cycles, as some schools do, where they release results on certain dates? Also, for Ithaca, she only applied for BFA Acting, not MT, so maybe that is different also.

My D has heard yes from Syracuse and Pace. Nothing yet from others.

@MuTheaFam Congrats to your D! When did you hear from Syracuse, and when did you submit app?

Has anyone heard anything from Ball State? We are waiting on Elon and Ball State.

We called Ball State and they said that they will not confirm audition dates/times until one month out.

About Ithaca- we received an anemic generic snail mail letter that I decoded to mean daughter did not pass. It was a bit hard to decipher. My daughter was fine. We weren’t really feeling the Ithaca vibe heavily anyway. This was for Acting BFA not MT. It took them about a month.
She passed CMU, Elon, Syracuse and Pace so go figure : /. Ithaca t’was not meant to be. It’s the only one that came
snail mail so heads up for that! Good luck all!!

@hmichmom I believe Elon’s MT notifications are going out on January 17th.

Heard last week and she submitted app 11/1.

Are the Syracuse notifications sent through messages in Get Accepted or regular email? Thanks.

My daughter heard through accepted but it took a while!

@MusTheaFam Thanks. It does say that it takes about 2 weeks to receive notification.

Break a leg to all of those attending Moonifieds this weekend. Let us know how it goes, and any insights into any particular schools…

Hmm… @laylamom I wonder if that means that those that haven’t heard from Ithaca are going to get a snail mail no. Interesting. My D still has not heard. She passed last year-but we understand that there are nos in this process.

@owensfolks I don’t think anything means anything until it does …right? It sounds as if they began later at Ithaca and
certain faculty members are taking longer. I hope you get good news. I was surprised to get this snail mail but also it was a meandering letter. I needed to ask her coach to decode it. This whole process is just wacky!

@belleforbroadway @Nordeal @SAS0792 are y’all still waiting on Ithaca MT? My D generally lets the process run its course, and doesn’t follow up with programs, but she submitted 9/28, and we are going into Thanksgiving Break. Wondering if I should nudge her to call them this pm.

@owensfolks, my D is still waiting to hear from Ithaca (BFA MT). It’s the only pre screen school she hasn’t heard from.

@owensfolks we are still waiting as well! We know another MT family with a S that also has NOT heard from Ithaca. I think we will hear when we hear.

@owensfolks Still no word from Ithaca for us either or ACU. We called ACU and they said they were waiting until after the November 10th audition.
