Taped Audition?

<p>Hi, my son is applying to Tisch ED, but as we live in India , he is sending a taped audition (as per NYU specifications). My question is --- are his chances of acceptance any lesser or that his audition , is, maybe viewed less favorably as it is a recording? The rest of his application is in order, good gpa sat etc.
Also if you could suggest other colleges which are at par with NYU ( drama/theater major program) which accept taped auditions or require no auditions.
My son is passionate about acting, more so for screen, so please suggest accordingly.
We are considering USC, &Chapman but I feel we should apply to at least 5 more, to be on the safe side.
Thanks in advance,
