<p>I was! Yay! I hope Juilliard tells Columbia. Um, Jono, did you tell Columbia about your J audition or were you just like, eff this, I already got in, or didn't you have to go through a screening process before you were given an audition?</p>
<p>So how are you all dealing with this, if any of you are applying to J/C?</p>
<p>I get an audition without screening because I'm in the precollege. Mine is March 1. . . . oh man.</p>
<p>I don't know if Columbia knows about Juilliard. . . hmmm
Juilliard knows about Columbia, though, I know that</p>
<p>Since I don't really have to get in, maybe I'll be able to relax and play better.
Maybe I'll loosen up, because I get so self-conscious and nervous, since they already know I'm probably a conscientious person.</p>
<p>I'm gonna dress nicely and make a nice program and try not to stress out.
By now I should be used to the audition setup there.
College student sitting in the hallway outside the audition room, taking attendance. Wait a few minutes, give him/her your program, wait until they're ready for you. Stress out.
Enter. Studio room, piano, chair (for cello, not for other instruments), tables, department faculty (in my case, cello) seated at the tables
"This is a nice program here."
"So, you got into/are applying to Columbia. Congratulations/Good luck."
"What do you want to play first?" Don't let them choose. (I'm gonna ask for something they might not hear otherwise, or something nice to start with, because I can be certain they will hear the concerto)
"I'd like to hear. . . " nods and sounds of agreement
"That was a very musical performance, I hate to stop you there, but for time. Now can we move onto. . . ."
"You're very talented, we've enjoyed hearing you. . ."</p>
<p>And you leave with the view of 2 other musicians waiting in the hall for their auditions, probably stressed out and probably very good musicians, to make you worry</p>
<p>When I was at Juilliard yesterday, they were having drama auditions already, and I was like oh god the auditions really are coming up. . . . . . . .</p>
<p>It was lots of fun! I was hoping my cello case would get all puffed up like a snowman but it didn't. :-( But I left early because there was supposed to be 3 inches and hour, and after 8 inches the trains stop running, and I didn't want to risk it.</p>
<p>So many people are February 28th! Everybody I've asked. Darn. I'm March 1.</p>
<p>you should just come up a day early! we can go to the opera. i'm planning to get the student rush tickets for turandot - although i hope my audition won't be over by the time the opera begins. the voice auditions call for several hours of callbacks, if you're selected.</p>
<p>My D was wait listed at Juilliard last year. What are the chances of her getting another audition as a transfer student next year, with two years of undergrad under her belt?</p>
<p>Very good especially since she already had an audition previously and was at least waitlisted. Where does she go now, another conservatory or what?</p>
<p>what do you play frecklybeckly?Can you tell me yer stats, cause i've a friend who's an aspiring musician, she plays the violin. The fact that you've made it into julliard is darn right amazing!</p>
