<p>I have question on behalf of a friend and her D, who don't post here. Maybe there's already a thread on this topic, but I couldn't spot one immediately. Friend's D is about to have her last audition. She applied to quite a few audition-based programs, and didn't want to apply to any nonaudition programs. So far she's received two rejections and no acceptances, so (can you all relate??) the levels of concern and stress are rising even higher than they already were. Of course -- the old mantra! -- all she needs is one acceptance. But now they're wondering if which programs, including nonaudition ones, might still be accepting applications. She's very solid academically. Anyone?</p>
<p>Please mentally delete the "if" in the next-to-last sentence of my previous post. (I hate when I do things like that, because I write & edit for a living!)</p>
<p>I believe Milikin and Marrieta accept later applications (both have BFA programs,). Marrieta is non-audition and has very generous merit aid, but I don't know what they would do with aid for late applicants.</p>
<p>Plymouth State University in NH is a rolling admissions university in NH, and is still accepting applications... the program is as auditioned BA that looks to have a first year class of 6 - 8 in the MT Option. I believe that students need to have applied and auditioned by April 1st to be considered for the option. </p>
<p>If you search prior posts, I think there was a discussion on this same topic back in early February. Best of luck to your friend's family.</p>
<p>Rhode Island College accepts applications until May 1st. So your friend can wait to hear from all of her schools and then apply.</p>
<p>Although Westminster recommends March 1 they do not have an official cut off and if you get in the last audition date of March 30 you can still be considered for financial aid. After that they consider you for whatever is left in funds.</p>
<p>Montclair State extended their deadline to 4/1, not sure abnout MT, but they may have another audition date.</p>
<p>Is Montclair mostly a commuter school?</p>
<p>I believe Montclair has their last MT audition date 3/24 but you can give them a call to see if they've added a date, financial aid deadlines etc.</p>
<p>Try Uarts, they start their process later also...</p>
<p>I think Columbia College in Chicago has a late date for an application deadline. I think it's May 1st. I don't think it requires an audition. I know two different people who go there, one for theatre, another for dance and they both love it there.</p>
<p>I believe you can still apply to Catawba, Good Luck! :D

Forgot to add, it is a BFA non audition program.</p>
<p>What does anyone know about Columbia? IS it a good program?</p>
<p>I'm failry certain you can audition for plymouth state AFTER April 1st...you just need to apply by then and schedule your audition by that date.
:)</p>
<p>Point Park works on rolling admissions as well</p>
<p>There has been discussion about Columbia (Chicago) in the past. Use the search function to find those threads. One active discussion ended up on the CMU forum (top of MT forum). I'm not sure why it started there, but it was a separate thread.</p>
<p>Thanks, everyone, for prompt suggestions and good wishes. I'll pass them along to my friend and her D. Think good thoughts for her -- as I know you are doing for all the CC MT kids (and, of course, their parents)!</p>
<p>My D was in this position last year and put her application in on the last day the college accepted them (which may be earlier than audition dates) -- so do be sure that the college deadline is met. (She applied to 2 schools on the last day and was accepted to both and is now very happy in the program she chose, so don't feel that a later application will be a less successful one... Good luck!...</p>
