<p>Right, getting an audition at PSU is automatic once your application is received, but you are not "selected" to audition. The only school that my D heard from about academic review first and then being asked to audition, was UMich. All her other schools told her the entire decision in one reply (accepted or denied or waitlisted) AFTER auditions. By the way, my niece goes to PSU (but for communications) and really likes it. My D would only consider it for the BFA program in MT, however. They run a good audition there.</p>
<p>woohoo I'm so excited... it'll be the farthest I've ever been away from home and the most I've ever spent on like anything... thats how bad I wanna go to CCM</p>
<p>so i got in to u of colorado academically as a theater non-audition major-it's my backup school-they still have an mt bfa program which I am auditioning for though...i don't know how you categorize that haha...but yeah, another thing to add to DA LIST.</p>

<p>due to post Katrina address glitch just heard yesterday. D accepted to MT at Elon University from November audition. Accepted for Drama only with award at OCU from November audition.
Best wishes to everyone during this process, next 12 weeks should be a blast!</p>
<p>oh my goodness. Congratulations!!!!!!!! That's so great.</p>
<p>Noccadad -</p>
<p>Congratulations on the exciting news - after the year you have had, I'm betting happy news seems almost surreal! Is Elon her first choice enabling you to step off the merry-go-round or are more auditions lined up?</p>
<p>Also, sorry if this is the stupid question of the week, but we seem to have more NOCCA posters now than before.......are you and noccamom the parents of the same girl (now living in Texas? being coached by Mary Anna) or do we have several nocca kids on the audition trail this year? I'm confused!! (not a totally abnormal state for me these days......)</p>
<p>It was a fantastic feeling and thank you for acknowleding my wife as well who has been amazing through this whole process and yes auditions will continue but Elon was in the top 2. We may alter the schedule somewhat but have to discuss with D. Right now Marymount Manhattan is their (wife and D) next stop then Point Park to finish January. Feb has unifieds which will be a chance for D to see all NOCCA friends and then back on the trail with FSU, UCF, and U of Fla, given that we now live in Central Fla.</p>
<p>Regarding NOCCA posters, I wish I could tell you in words what a fabulous place NOCCA was and the community of instructors, students and parents that were involved there. The latest word is that the facility will reopen next year as it was minimally damaged but the state decimated the budget so they are operating on a shoe string now and had to lay off a lot of people.
To anyone out there who can help, please send your support!</p>
<p>Noccamom is my d's very close friend whom she knew from NOCCA and they attended CAP21 together this past summer. Please let her know when you can that we are all thinking about her here on CC and will lend assistance however we can. They have been through a very difficult 4 months and have really demonstrated amazing character.</p>
<p>I am also glad that more people are taking advantage of this site which has been a mainstay in out lives the last 3 years and significant contributed to our piece of mind.</p>
<p>ThespianDreams and Drum87. Good luck on the 14th. drop me an email if you want to talk about it and share out anxieties with eachother lol.</p>
<p>Theatermom - to clear the confusion. I am not NOCCADad's wife. Our daughters were best friends at NOCCA in New Orleans and when I chose my screen name it did not occur to me that there was already a NOCCADad!! But they are wonderful people and it has been a blessing to know them given that both our daughters have had to endure this important year in this way. The NOCCADad family lost their home in New Orleans and they too have pushed forward and should be proud of their progress. I am not sure how many NOCCA kids read the boards or post, but there are many in the process this year. For anyone attending Unifieds in Chicago you will likely see a loud group of kids acting like its a reunion, because it will be for them.</p>
<p>I am so excited for D on her Elon news, I can't wait to tell my D about her acceptance. Unless she has already beat me too it via cell phone!</p>
<p>Thanks to both Noccamom and Noccadad for clearing up my confusion. I can only affirm that my heart is with you as you help your children pursue their dreams - a task which is daunting under even ideal conditions. I don't think it is an exaggeration to describe your support and love as heroic. Brava and bravo to you all.</p>
<p>Such awesome news Noccadad!</p>

<p>Joining in the congrats to NoccaDad's daughter on her acceptance to Elon! That is an achievement even under the best of circumstances but clearly even more joyous given the challenges of this past year for the family. Very happy for you all! :)
Susan</p>
<p>Happy New Year Everyone,</p>
<p>Noccadad - CONGRATULATIONS ON ELON!! That is wonderful news. I know Elon is at the top of my d's list. My d is waiting to hear from Elon and she was also accepted to OCU drama and music. Perhaps they will end up at the same school. I know we were originally planning on meeting at Elon. Tell your d good luck on the rest of her college journey.</p>
<p>lexismom</p>
<p>Susan, you put that so well! I have the same feelings about the daughter of NOCCAmom, (btw these 2 students are great friends but not related). I get choked up just thinking about it</p>
<p>Since I have been coaching NOCCAmom's daughter, I will claim bragging rights (mom never would) and say the she has been accepted to MM, OCU, OU, and SMU (among others). </p>
<p>I have started my own little thread of acceptances for my small group of students but wanted to second your accolades here.</p>
<p>We all are pulling for you former NOCCA students and I can't wait to see you all in Chicago.</p>
<p>Much love and admiration,
xxx,Mary Anna</p>
<p>noccadad, congrats to your daughter and i know that it must be a relief to get that acceptance under your belt. good luck however on the rest of your auditions so you will have a great oppertunity to choose your best fitting school. CONGRATS again!</p>
<p>Hi all,</p>
<p>I am new to this website, but I wanted to let eveyone know that I was accepted into Emerson for musical theatre (early action). I still have more auditions coming up but I can relax!!!</p>

<p>Congrats also to NoccaMom's daughter! I, too, was confused until today about the relationship between NoccaMom and NoccaDad...oops, I didn't put that right.....I know there is none but between their kids's friendships and mutual hardships this year but glad I got it straight now. </p>
<p>PRFRMR20...CONGRATS on Emerson!! Wow! You just contacted me that you are a friend of my D's from theater camp and I am thrilled for you....to have one under your belt so far. There are several Stagedoorians at Emerson (plus some of my D's friends from here in VT) and if you should end up there, we'll have to pass them all onto you. Great way to start the audition season. I think you are the first Emerson acceptance on this forum. Glad you came upon this forum and chose to join in. Keep us informed on the rest of your auditions and good luck. </p>
<p>Susan</p>
<p>PS to PRFRMR20.....I got a note that you sent a PM but that my PM box was full and I just took some messages out to make room, sorry. Resend it if you can. I much prefer emails to PMs...thought I'd mention that to all those who PM....can't keep up with that box!</p>
