My DD didn't apply to GSA but has 2 friends (one boy, one girl) on the reserve list. Your DD has done so well to get straight in! :)

I know a local lad that has just been accepted, he has a beautiful voice, great actor,but not a dancer.

Thanks Carriecrafts. I know! We honestly still can't believe it. DD has been very very lucky! Thank you very much!! :D
I thought it would be nice to speak to someone else who's DC was either there or going soon, but no ones come forward as yet.

Oh really Bruno, :D I don't suppose his parents are on NAPM? :-k

Well done jem123. How long did it take for her to find out outcome of audition ? Ds got through to recall at weekend for mt foundation . Do they write or email ? This is the worst bit.

DD had same problem! Letter arrived a long time after it was dated and with a 14 day 'deadline'! She was also awaiting result of another audition so rang and explained - they were very helpful! :D

Yes phoned them so I feel a little easier now. He desperately wants to go there but I don't know if my nerves could handle it again . He already has alternatives on the table but gsa is " the one "
