Re: Auditioning for 2021 entry

That's great news icantdance. Well done to your DS on his successes and in making his decision. He'll have a ball. It's lovely hearing about offers and even better to hear those tough decisions have now been made. Brilliant! :)

Re: Auditioning for 2021 entry

Regarding your Arts Ed query oscar - DD got Arts Ed recall email two weeks after she submitted her tapes - approx 10 days after her audition deadline. Recall information followed a couple of weeks later by email after her face to face was swapped to online. She had her recall on Zoom yesterday - the...

Re: College student numbers

It's a really good point Zoorangerman and infact a question I asked on here recently. Bird has a reputation for being huge but it seems Perfomers is now even bigger and Urdang is catching up. It seems to be the dance colleges that are increasing their numbers whereas the more singing/drama based one...

Re: All colleges open on 8th March ?

DD and our two young lodgers have all had both LTFs now and are raring to go tomorrow back at EDA. I've seen their timetables - all face to face from 8:30 to 6 with four study periods during the week. Only their private singing lesson is on Zoom but still at EDA. I think they will all be exhausted b...

Re: Auditioning for 2021 entry

My DD auditioned two weeks ago for Laine so, like others, is waiting on the outcome. Glad you took the time to put Miss Laine's comments into perspective. That was we had thought. Thank you! Brilliant for your DS that he got a full scholarship. Those are so rare - so huge well done! He must be a rea...

Re: Auditioning for 2021 entry

Great to hear about more recalls. It really gives them a buzz and keeps them upbeat which is just what they need at the moment! Well done to them all! :)

Re: Auditioning for 2021 entry

It's certainly getting to nail biting times! DD had Laine chat on Monday (at least that's how she described it!) and also said about three weeks was mentioned. But we don't know if definite "no"s hear before then? Or what is happening about funding recalls. Betty Laine will always have the...

Re: All colleges open on 8th March ?

Emil Dale are back on the 8th. They've had an extended half term and are providing a skeletal online curriculum the week beginning March 1st to allow students to return to their term time accommodation and get tested before starting in person. They are then continuing to near the end of July with a ...

Re: Auditioning for 2021 entry

Many thanks for the data! I had thought Performers numbers included the new campus so that was a revelation. The colleges are getting bigger and bigger - good for those auditioning as more young people will get places and have a great three years, but more seeking agents and employment in the future...

Re: Auditioning for 2021 entry

My DD had already submitted her tapes anastasia79. She emailed Laine to explain and said she'd resubmit and to ignore her first submission. They said that was fine. Luckily she had time on her side! That's great Grace03 - such a relief to be finished - although we've found that recalls sometimes req...

Re: Auditioning for 2021 entry

The stress definitely continues! DD realised last night that she'd missed off a Laine exercise on her self- tape so a quick filming session then a re-doing of the combined tape and resubmitting today. She's just had the details of her interview next week. Think she just managed to swap her submissio...

Re: Auditioning for 2021 entry

No more news here but just wanted to say a big well done to you and your DD. We know exactly how you feel with all the filming and organising halls etc. Hope you can now relax and that your DD gets the offers she wants. All stressful - cutting and uploading takes time too. And then some colleges hav...

Re: Urdang

We feel just like you Moonfaery. Urdang is a great option but not actually DD's first choice. We're just not sure how realistic her top choices are for her as they are colleges that take fewer students and she'd need funding. She's already deferred by three weeks although they've acknowledged studen...

Re: Urdang

Thank you Littleone for the information - that's very useful and correlates with what we'd heard. DD has been asked again by Urdang if she's accepting her offer - needs to decide soon!
