Just that tiny bit of feedback has lifted her enormously - well done PPA xx

Hi Felicity. Wow that is quick and sounds very promising for your DD - fingers crossed for you both.Felicity wrote:Keeping fingers crossed they make your DD a Foundation offer Coolcats!coolcatsmomma wrote:Hi Felicity. Glad your DD had a good day as well. They didn’t say anything to my DD about when she’d hear so we’re assuming it will be a no - do you mind me asking what they told your DD about how long it would be before they hear?Felicity wrote:
Wow my DD was at the same audition at PPA today Coolcats! Like your DD she absolutely loved it - really friendly vibe similar to Trinity. She said it was one of the most intense but enjoyable auditions yet (this was her last audition). DD said they let them know quite quickly. Would your DD take the Foundation there if offered?
Is there anyone on the forum with a DC at PPA who could offer a perspective?
I think at this stage if DD got offered a foundation she’d be doing cartwheels. We’ve learned so much and I think that a foundation would be a great thing for her.
I am pretty sure DD said they would let her know tomorrow??? Sounds super fast...
DD is hoping for a BA offer there but said there were lots of amazing performers at the audition, including many who were on Foundations at various places. I wonder if our DDs met? Mine was the one who swapped with someone who had a train to catch so needed an earlier singing slot. My DH was collecting by car so less pressure on timing. Was v proud of her for stepping up and helping that girl out.
I’m not so sure for my DD as they didn’t say a time or specifically refer to their foundation so I’m assuming likely a no but the feedback was gold for DD so just really happy to have got that.
How lovely of your DD to swap times. My DD also swapped times but that was requested by another girl who wanted to wait to go home with her friend. Worked out well for us as we were able to get away at 6pm - hopefully you didn’t have a very long wait!

Finally some great news.
DD has been offered foundation at PPA and is on the reserve list for BA.
She is beyond excited - (me too). Thanks for all your wishes. And good luck to those still waiting.
UCAS hasn’t updated yet but she’s had an email and it’s also showing on her PPA logon.
Felicity I have sent you a dm - fingers crossed for your DD. X

My DD also got an email from Trinity today suggesting she audition for their foundation - not sure if it’s a standard follow up but was another lovely confidence bump!

That is really encouraging for her. So sad that it is out of your price range (and most of us here too!). Give her congratulations from us all. She must has impressed them as they don't offer it to that manyMarissa wrote:Well done all x My DD also got an email about the foundation yr which was really nice and has cheered her up although there is no way we could afford it sadly x

Re: Auditioning for SEPT 2018
Excellent. I'm getting lost with all these offers. Perhaps we ought to start a thread saying what they are all going to do next year and people can add when they've finished all their auditions?Felicity wrote:Fab news Coolcats!
