<p>The Unified Auditions provide a wonderful service to applicants who cannot afford to visit each school for their auditions. However, I would recommend that each applicant do their research and compile their college list according to the many important criteria that are discussed here on CC about theatre and musical theatre programs. Then, check and see which schools on your list participate in the Unifieds and/or offer regional auditions at the same time, or in other cities. I would not recommend doing it in reverse and making your decisions as to where to apply/audition simply because the school is on the Unifieds list.</p>
