[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It was SOO much work. He actually chose not to apply to some additional schools once he saw their portfolio/music application/audition requirements. And the one that was the most work (Jacobs at IU) he was rejected but that’s how it goes. My older kid applied for engineering and it was so much easier, I was not prepared for this!

Got into UConn and U Denver for Music as well (and a couple of safeties). Still waiting for Ithaca College and Berklee decisions.

Thanks for the kind words, I have a newfound respect for these music and other performing arts applicants.

[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Accepted in the last few days to Drexel (Recording & Music Production), Belmont (Commercial Music) and College-Conservatory of Music at U Cincinnati (Music).

Drexel was acceptance after a deferral and the university acceptances to Belmont and U Cincinnati came months ago, but just received acceptance to the music programs, which are more selective.[/quote]k

Congrats! I know those music, supplementals, portfolios, and auditions are a lot of extra work.[/quote]

I have no personal experience with this, but thank you for highlighting all of these efforts -- it's a privilege to learn about these students' efforts and to celebrate their accomplishments. Genuinely.

xo,

Theater Design parent here - it’s SO much work and I too appreciate the acknowledgement of how much work these students end up doing for admissions. Double the work for each app between portfolio building and then adjustments for each school, interviews and interview prep, the extra (up to four extra) essays on top of common app & general school essay questions etc.

I didn’t really understand it until I saw DCs process. [/quote]
