<p>QUICK QUESTION:
When does the unified application for conservatory admission become available?
does anyone know?
Thanks!</p>
<p>Some time around the end of August/early September if my memory is serving me well.</p>
<p>Do many schools accept the same application? Any names? Is this the same as the common app. that "regular" colleges use? Thanks.</p>
<p>See Unified</a> Application for Conservatory Admission for details</p>
<p>Unified is a very broad term here! I think there are five schools which include, among others, New England Conservatory, Cleveland Institute and Oberlin. They are all in one place so it makes it easier to check that you've done everything, but each application is really quite different.</p>
<p>It is not "unified" beyond carrying personal and family information from application to application.</p>
<p>The essays, short answers, etc. are completely different. I think "unified" is actually a misnomer!</p>
<p>okay september 1st, i just found out on the site. thanks everyone!</p>
