[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PP here - U Miami has an Audio Technology major that does not require a portfolio.[/quote]

Not sure U Miami with its 18% acceptance rate is realistic for B student.[/quote]

OP here--DS is actually planning to apply to U Miami but RD. I read that the vast majority of EA applicants to Frost School of Music are deferred to RD, so he just decided to apply RD. His High School's acceptance rate to U Miami is close to 40%, so it's definitely a reach but possible if his musical talent is considered strong enough to make up for the mediocre grades.[/quote]

Oh good! And I was mistaken saying it didn't require a portfolio. That major does require a portfolio, but does not require and audition. The Music Engineering degree they offer requires both a portfolio and an audition.

You are correct that most of the Frost applicants are deferred to RD. Good luck to your son![/quote]

I can't remember what specific major he chose there, they are all a bit different, App is probably sitting in the Common App right now waiting to send off. I'll encourage submitting to the major that *ONLY* requires Portfolio. The Portfolio is done at least . . . [/quote]
