Does academic merit help in admission to the program? I have a 34 ACT and the auditioner said it was the highest she had seen audition. Does GPA or ACT help in the decision?
Adding on to that, does anyone know the ratio of male to female auditionees? I was one of two boys in my audition. There we 14 females and 2 males. Does that increase my odds in any way?
Also, can you be rejected from the program and still be accepted academically to the school? I know a few schools like Emerson don’t accept students who didn’t successfully complete the audition.
University of Hartford is pretty easy to get into, so I doubt that academics factor at all into the artistic decision. It’s all about the audition.
I don’t think they send separate academic and artistic acceptances (we just got one letter). But if you weren’t accepted artistically to Hartt, yet still wanted to go to the University of Hartford, I’m sure you could. Again, it’s not a super-selective school.
I don’t know the stats for Hartt specifically, but in general, many more women go into MT than men, so being male does improve your odds.
