Studio Assignments

<p>I just got my acceptance to Tisch… Anybody know when studio assignments come?</p>

<p>Congratulations! Studio assignments usually come within a week of the acceptance package.</p>

<p>My S just got his assignment today--Stella Adler! He's thrilled--it's perfect for him, in so many ways. I think they really know what they're doing. Anybody else in Stella Adler?</p>

<p>Raphael,</p>

<p>My daughter is in Adler and loves it! It has been a great experience for her. Congratulations to your son!</p>

<p>I got mine today as well! CAP21 :)</p>

<p>Hmm... Mine isn't here yet, but I'm all the way out in California... Hope it comes tomorrow!</p>

<p>If you're eager to know I believe you can call the dept. of drama and ask. I did last year.</p>

<p>I received both my acceptance/financial aid package (in a large packet) and my CAP21 studio assignment (came separate, in a small, normal envelope) today. :D</p>

<p>I'm in ETW! First choice, but now i'm a little nervous about it.</p>

<p>Mackie -- you are probably just experiencing "buyer's remorse." It's not unusual to feel nervous and uncertain when we get what we want -- it's a strange paradox. Have you ever heard of the expression "Be careful what you wish for, for it is sure to be yours."</p>

<p>My experience is that after the initial excitement wears off, you will feel good about your decision and your nervousness will go away. But, remember, it's not at all unusual to feel a bit anxious before going away to school -- Stockbridge, GA to NYC is a big move, after all. Good luck with it, you'll be fine.</p>

<p>I'm Adler as well, just found out! I'm so excited I could explode!</p>

<p>Mine is STILL not here! I'm going CRAZY!</p>

<p>They refused to tell me by phone, too. Gah.</p>

<p>My first choice was CAP, followed by Adler. I think I'm gonna keel over from anticipation.</p>

<p>Thanks for the encouragement manuelo, ETW is a very intimidating studio. The thing you said about buyer's remorse is soooo true. I just don't want to feel uncomfortable in my studio for two whole years. I regret requesting it. Anyone have any personal experience with ETW?</p>

<p>Mackie, I'm not in ETW, I'm in Meisner but we do smiliar stuff and I know a lot of people there. You most likely WILL NOT regret it because it will be awesome. But yeah it may feel uncomfortable/nervous at first. It's a daring place to put yourself. But then wonderful. And so is every studio really. It's very physical work, sensual...experimental, believe it or not! ETW isn't for everyone, but I don't know of anyone who was put there and doesn't love it. Kevin Khulke is an amazing man and I'm so jealous of anyone who gets taught by him!
Also if you really don't like it after the first few weeks, you can transfer studios. It's not simple but it's possible.
If you have any specific questions, I can try and help.</p>

<p>I asked my s, a Jr, (who initially wanted CAP but loves his studio, Playwrights) what other studio he might have chosen--knowing what he knows now. He indicated ETW. So, go for it!</p>

<p>^ I might have to have a talk with your son so he can talk me back into it. lol.</p>

<p>I finally called somebody who would tell me studio assignment (my letter has still not arrived). I was placed in Adler. Woo-hoo!</p>

<p>For reference, the number I called that finally gave me information was 212-998-1850.</p>

<p>Mackie, I hope you can find a way to talk to current students in ETW. My daughter has several friends in ETW. In fact, she'd love to go to ETW (she is in CAP21) as you can switch studios after two years, but she doesn't want to give up CAP21 to do ETW, as much as she'd enjoy ETW. She is taking a class this semester with a faculty person from ETW and really likes it very much. Right now, it is simply an unknown for you, but it is considered an amazing studio as far as experiences go.</p>

<p>Congrats to all of you on your acceptances and studios. For those who got Adler, from what my D says, as well as her Adler friends, it is an excellent studio for the study of acting.</p>

<p>Alright so maybe I'm an idiot or maybe this is a legit question, I'm not sure. </p>

<p>I've just had my first choice studio (Adler) come through for me. However, I am also a really big lover of musical theatre and even was offered CAP 21, but am going to stick with straight acting, because I really want a strong collegiate-level foundation there first, before I start adding music and dance. </p>

<p>After two years, I've heard that it is possible to switch studios. Can I go from Adler to CAP in my junior year? Does it require an audition, since I am going into a program that requires other skills, or since I've already auditioned for them, will I automatically be allowed to switch? For me, changing at junior may be the absolute ideal, getting both worlds. Thanks for your help everyone!</p>

<p>Your definately not an idiot but i dont know the answer.</p>
