Re: Auditioning for 2024 entry

My daughter was offered PPA acting foundation then changed to degree in 2021. She had auditioned online due to the lockdowns and accepted without visiting because that wasn't possible. When she later attended the open day she didn't think it was the right fit for her so when a last minute offer cam...

Re: Auditioning for 2024 entry

Yes this. It took me a while to get my head round it but auditioning for drama school isn't the same as being in a dance/drama comp. It's not just whoever performs the monologue the best 'wins' the place. The skill set and type are taken into account too. It’s a tough one isn’t it?! The job market’...

Re: Auditioning for 2024 entry

Someone at my DD's college was offered a place last week from the reserve list. I wonder how that happens when they haven’t done all their recalls yet? I imagine once they see someone they know they want they offer them the place. They will know who has been selected for the rest of the recalls - t...

Re: Auditioning for 2024 entry

Has anyone heard if there has been any offers from GSA MT reserve list as yet? My DC is waiting and curious to know if there has been any offers / no's yet? Your question is probably answered in post above yours by Harry2003. I suspect you cross posted and missed. For reference my DD last year, the...

Re: Auditioning for 2024 entry

K8t- tell her not to be demoralised. It took mine 3 years to get onto a degree. She did 2 foundations first. Last year despite getting closer than ever before with 3rd/final rounds from very prestigious schools she had no offers. On her very last day of her 2nd foundation when they were doing 2 perf...

Re: Auditioning for 2024 entry

Does anyone know much about IAB in Barcelona? DD added to her applications without knowing a huge amount about it .. now she has an offer for the BA In MT. She’s been offered a callback for MV Foundation .. and has round 2 at Italia Conti tomorrow. IAB looks legit and she is doing A level Spanish s...

Re: Auditioning for 2024 entry

MelW - Have you checked junk/spam folder if offer was going to be by email? My friend's daughter auditioned at several places around a month ago and got offers from Bird & Peformers and waiting lsit Wilkes. She's decided to take Bird, so considering length of time you've been waiting, a polite q...

Re: Auditioning for 2024 entry

Thanks LizzyBee, I panicked for a moment! I haven’t looked on the website since last year, I think I clicked on the wrong course. I only realised after I posted on here 😅 BA Acting is definitely still delivered at Sidcup. BA Actor Training is delivered in Wigan. As said this is from when they took ...

Re: Auditioning for 2024 entry

Hope everyone got on okay. Still waiting to hear on GSA foundation. Have had nothing back from Italia Conti self tape either, apart from acknowledgement, has anyone else? Emailed Rose Bruford checking they received the UCAS application as she’s had nothing from them either, but they haven’t replied...

Re: Auditioning for 2024 entry

I’m not coping at all well! DD rejected her deferred place on a degree course for MT to reapply this year, so far she didn’t get a recall for Arts foundation, still waiting to hear from IC self tape, hasn’t sent in her Mountview self tape, it’s due tomorrow! She had an audition for GSA (dream place...

Re: Auditioning for 2024 entry

Hi Hilltop, My DD has done both a private and a funded foundation (acting). Some pros and cons. Private - having to fund every single penny for them can be tough. It's not just the course tuition and accommodation costs, it's the money to live on not just groceries but any socialising, any 'it's so ...

Re: Auditioning for 2024 entry

When DD auditioned last year they started in mid Jan and apart from 2 which were automatic nos (1 that she'd considered a safe choice, the other she'd been offered foundation at the year before but turned down in favour of going somewhere else - so both these came as a shock) she got thru to 2nd/3rd...

Re: Auditioning for 2024 entry

Does anyone know if Performers ever offer a place without asking for an interview? They say getting an interview has no bearing on offers but everyone my DD knows had an interview before offered a place on the day and her friend was offered a place today after an interview. My DD was not offered an...
