@MTSthistime , my D’s audition is actually on Sunday, so I guess we won’t see you if your son’s is on Saturday. 
. BAL to him!!!
Yes. My D has her Hartt audition Sunday. We are flying in Saturday and hoping to get on campus Saturday to look around. Not sure if that will work. Maybe we’ll see you.
BAL !!!
@BlessedNStressed , make sure to check out the cute little downtown area in West Hartford. My D went to Hartt a few years back and we loved West Hartford. Lots of great places to eat, and fun to walk around.
I was also wondering about more information regarding unifieds. I remember looking at the list of schools on the website, but that website is no longer up and running. It would be nice to have an updated list of schools that would be at unifieds. Also, I know that other schools have auditions during that same time in Chicago that aren’t part of unifieds so they hold them at near by places. Does anyone have any input as to what schools that might be and where those auditions would be at? This is our first year going through this process so any information would be quite helpful. What schools? Walk-ins, do you look for those openings each morning? Would 3 auditions in one day be too much? TIA
For those of you that have already auditioned at Baldwin Wallace for MT, can you tell me what time the audition ended? Trying to make flight arrangement for son’s audition in Feb. Thanks!
@tygerpig You can find out which schools will be at Unifieds by looking at each schools website. For the schools that are off-site, those schools give that information to the students who have scheduled auditions with them. For walk-ins, yes, you will need to walk the halls each morning at the hotel to see who might be offering walk-in slots this year. In regards to how many auditions in one day is too much, it truly depends on your student and their comfort level. Some like to only do 1-2 a day and others can bang out 4.
@tygerpig I’ve been through this once before with my older daughter. Unified walk-ins are a fun way to fill in the blank spots in their unified schedules and it is certainly possible to find a program you had no idea about and get a walk-in and an offer. My older daughter did have that experience… BUT, walk-ins are really extra. The number of auditions depends on timing and dance calls. Some don’t have dance calls… kids can handle a lot of those. If they have a dance call then that’s an hour or more. If they have a dance call and an information session it’s 2 1/2 to 3 hours for that school. My older daughter did I think 7 auditions in one day in Chicago… 2 scheduled 5 walk ins. But that’s A LOT… and not normal. I’m trying to schedule 2 per day for my younger daughter, 3 if they don’t have a dance call, and then she can fill in with walk-ins if she feels like it when we’re there. As for the schools… there is a great list on this site that some people have put together. I’ll try to find it and link to it.
@tygerpig look back at post #677. There is the link to the thread with the Unifieds on and off site and if they take walk ins. Once you click on the link in post 677 on this thread, you’ll have to go to the LAST post to see the most recently updated list on that thread.
@NYYFanNowMTdad @muttsandMT and @WDWMom --We were also at OCU on Nov. 16. D20 auditioned for double major MT and VP. Her heart is more in VP, so this is the only school where she auditioned as a double major. OCU is by far her first choice because of the size, distance from home, and fact that she can double major so easily. She was also not asked to sing her aria but was asked to sing two of her art songs (one Spanish, one English) and her more “current” MT song. As a possible double major, she had to bring 5 songs with her! We had a great time–even going to the first act of the opera the night before. Anyone’s kid applying for VP at some other schools instead of MT? We had our Baylor VP audition yesterday, and dd just heard she passed prescreens for UNT. We wont’ do Unifieds or anything like that because dd’s first love is singing. She did college auditions at ITF and has a BFA admission offer at St. Mary’s Minnesota.
My daughter auditioned in November and finished at about 4 pm. Good luck to him. My daughter loved the faculty and students there. It has been her favorite audition day so far

Quick question for Onette (or anyone who was at Hartt on Sunday!):
My D said the person who was at the table for her Hartt MT audition was named Tracey, but when we checked the website to find her last name, there are 2 Traceys in the theatre dept! D said she wasn’t sure which one she saw based on the photo–and one didn’t have a photo… Onette mentioned someone from Hartt named Tracy was at CAP auditions, so assuming it’s the same person? Would you know her last name?
Thanks!
@toystorymom, Tracey Moore was in my daughter’s audition room. I assume she was probably also the one at the table, but I can’t say for sure.
Pretty much all schools are at Unifieds one way or another. Look at a particular school’s website audition days. You’ll find they often are the same dates as Unifieds in NYC/Chicago/LA. Not every school holds them at the Palmer Hotel for instance in Chicago. But all locations are nearby via walking or cab. Walk In auditions are just add ins you can’t plan on until you are onsite. For instance in Chicago they have a listing of daily walkins at concierge desk. NYC posts on the studio boards. Not sure about LA but I know that’s the most laid back Unifieds. But LA is very deep in the audition calendar. So best to knock out lots of auditions prior for best results if you can. We found campus auditions to be more fruitful than the cattle call of Unifieds. But others liked Unifies best. So do what works for your family best financially. But don’t stress about walk ins. No way to know who will have them or not until you are onsite. So apply to programs you really want an audition to prior to Unifieds. Break legs.
Thanks, Eliza Doolittle! That was the Tracey that made the most sense on the dept list, but wanted to double-check… 
Did anyone audition at BoCo last Saturday? I’m wondering how many students auditioned as Sunday there were only 22 which surprised us!
I have a scheduling conflict with two schools at Unifieds after passing a prescreen that I wasn’t expecting to. As much as I would like to be at two places at once, it is just not possible. How do I go about fixing this issue?
Any UCLA applicants? My D20 applied as her reach/lottery school just to see what happens. It is such a mystery who they invite to audition. It seems new this year that the applicants submitted the Theatre Supplement prior to the invite so not sure if they are using more than in the past to decide on who gets an audition. Her stats are definitely below their average for all other majors but not crazy low. I will be sure to post whether or not she gets to audition along with her stats for future applicants to have some idea.
Today is the day BW said they would make decisions from the Fall auditions. Has anyone heard from them yet?
@crazytheatregoer If the school scheduled the audition for you, call or email the theatre dept and ask to change the audition due to scheduling conflict. Look at their theatre page … they all tend to have emails such as “auditions@school.edu”
