New... Chance a MT major? (UMich, NYU, CMU...)

<p>Hi, okay thanks for chancing me! Just FYI, I'm planning on majoring in Musical Theatre, but I'd like to gage my academic acceptance situation.</p>

<p>-Junior at prestigious private college prep school
-GPA 4.02 (unweighted)
-ACT 32
-PSAT 198
-Many honors classes, but no AP since my school has only 1 (awesome, right?)
-Just FYI, my GPA dropped pretty dramatically b/c of an extended absence from school for health reasons (finished semester w/ independent study)</p>

<p>EC's
-Thespians 3 years
-Speech Team finalist 3 years (winning 3rd & 4th place)
-STUCO President Sophomore year
-School Musicals every year--many leads
-Professional Musical Theatre Touring Troupe (outside of school)
-Volunteer/perform in benefit shows
-Dance and Voice lessons
-Interlochen Summer camp
-Speaker/Lobbyist for state bill</p>

<p>Okay guess that's it..
Chances for:
-University of Michigan
-NYU
-CMU (major reach, I know)
-Northwestern
-Oklahoma City University
-Indiana University
-Elon
-Boston University</p>

<p>Thanks so much! I'll chance you!</p>

<p>You might get more replies if you post this on the musical theatre major forum!</p>

<p>But, people will probably tell you that the most important thing is the audition, and that just stats will tell them nothing about you as a performer and candidate for an MT program.</p>

<p>My D auditioned for a few of these:
U Mich - be sure to have your music chops up: theory, piano in addition to a kicking performance audition.
NYU - my D was picked by her auditioner for CAPS 21, but was waitlisted by a 26 ACT; 1200 SAT (old scoring). Her GPA & Resume were fabulous.
CMU - did not reply! Can't tell you what the problem was:-)
OCU - she chose (#2 choice after NYU). The class before hers was large - about 35, I think. They took only 10 males & 10 females her year, and the current group is big again. Best of luck deciding!</p>

<p>i think your academics are definitely on par. so i think you are in academically, but your audition will determine whether you are in to the mt program. but seeing all your experience (interlochen, triple-threat, etc), i think you have a really good shot.</p>
