Re: Auditioning for 2023 entry
@louiseDunn Many congrats to your DS! That's great news. Having that first offer must change everything in terms of giving confidence for other auditions, knowing there's one in the bag already.
Re: Auditioning for 2023 entry
Well done. I can only imagine the relief of an offer. DD didn’t get a recall for Leeds Conservatoire, I’m shocked to be honest, but she’s being pragmatic about it. Guess she’s not what they’re looking for.Louisedunn wrote: ↑Fri Jan 20, 2023 4:57 pm Hi guys, DS received a diploma offer from Bird yesterday! Gone to school super happy today

It’s so hard watching her go through it. At times I feel physically sick!

@Proseccoplease It is exhausting, you’re right!Proseccoplease wrote: ↑Sat Jan 21, 2023 1:45 pm So we’re back again for another fun year of audition trauma! DS didn’t get the degree offers he so desperately wanted last year and didn’t take the offer of Foundations either which is terrifying as he has just decided to take a year out and experience life outside of college whilst keeping up his training. He learnt his mistake of only applying for a handful of top courses last year and has had much more success so far. Got a degree offer just before Christmas which is fantastic as he knows he has somewhere to go now and has recalls at Mountview, RAM, RCS and Royal Welsh to go. Managed to navigate the no’s he has also received with more positivity knowing all is not lost. Will be so so so happy to get this all over and done with, I can’t bare the waiting!
Wishing everyone auditioning the best of luck, it’s a horrible process and you just have to keep reminding them a no doesn’t mean you’re not good enough, it just means you’re not right for that cohort. At least that’s what I am trying to drill into my DS! Absolutely emotionally exhausting.
Sounds like your DS is having more luck this year, huge well done to him! Amazing colleges to have got recalls at, as well as an offer received already! It sounds like a year out wasn’t a bad thing (wish my DD had done same thing!), so great to hear that he kept up his training, it has obviously paid off. Fantastic.

@biscuitsneeded Thank you, yes it does. Had more confidence at yesterday’s audition and received another offer, so things appears to be going well - so farbiscuitsneeded wrote: ↑Sun Jan 22, 2023 3:53 pm @louiseDunn Many congrats to your DS!

I understand how you feel! When I went through it with my DD two years ago it was tough, I was checking email’s constantly.
Has your DD applied anywhere else?

Re: Auditioning for 2023 entry
@LouiseDunn another offer for your DS? That's brilliant - well done to him. Is it somewhere he would choose over Bird, or just one that's nice to have? Or will it come down to finance arrangements?
@K8T - I'm sorry your daughter didn't get a Leeds recall. I hope she isn't too disappointed. Hopefully she will get better news from elsewhere. How many applications has she made?

Re: Auditioning for 2023 entry
Question about CENTRAL - Can I ask if anyone on here has had news of a final recall at Central for MT? My DS went there 10 days ago and got recalled to the pm, and has since received invitations to 2 final recalls - one for Acting and one for CDT. He didn't really want the MT course and is more than happy with this outcome. Some of his friends were also recalled to the pm on the day of audition, but their UCAS has subsequently updated to a rejection, meaning no final recall. However, one of his friends who auditioned earlier than him and was also recalled to pm on her day, has heard nothing at all. Her UCAS hasn't changed and she hasn't received any emails. We're trying to help her work out if this might be good news, and a MT final recall is coming shortly, or if in fact everyone has heard about MT final recalls and she has actually been lost in the system somewhere. If anyone has a DC in this process, or knows anyone who is, please let us know!

Re: Auditioning for 2023 entry
Thanks @LouiseDunn fantastic news for you too!
@K8T I honestly know exactly how you feel. Last year was so so hard and each no left me feeling more and more sick. You feel every disappointment in your very soul. I hope she has some more auditions ahead? Good luck, remember you often only hear of the offers, no one talks about all the no's! DS has had plenty of those too!

Re: Auditioning for 2023 entry
They might be still deciding, maybe email them if she doesn’t hear back soon, to make sure she didn’t get lost in the system. Did they say how long it will take to get back to her after the audition? Well done to your ds for getting to the finals, he seems to be doing really well. Dd has finally booked her audition for Central, not until March though. She’s making progress with her applications and submissions but doesn’t seem to be in any hurry. She’s very busy with college work and auditions for their final show, there’s a lot going on right now, as for everyone else, I’m sure.
Re: Auditioning for 2023 entry
My DD is in a similar position, got recalls last year to few top places but not the offer, also passed on foundation but has kept up her training. Actually was probably a blessing as she had a small polyp removed in June and has been working hard on vocal rehab hence we’re only just putting in apps now, eek! But needed the time to get ready to tape etc.biscuitsneeded wrote: ↑Thu Jan 19, 2023 10:20 pm Nice to see people posting again. DS finally sent off some of his applications but has a couple he still needs to do! He's another last-minute type.... So far DS has done really well; it feels wrong to go into any detail in case I jinx anything (!) but he's had some really nice news of recalls in a few places. I'll update as and when they have happened. All very exciting and also totally distracting as far as getting schoolwork done is concerned! Good luck to all. It's a bruising process but it sounds as if everyone has more or less got the ball rolling now.
Re: Auditioning for 2023 entry
Sorry I’m not answering your question but coming back with one! We saw the audition says unaccompanied song, does that mean you can’t use even a backing track or do they just mean they won’t have a pianist there? Thanks! Btw why does your DS not fancy the MT at Central? Curious as my DD feels same, she’d do acting there but probably not MT. Good luck with the recallsbiscuitsneeded wrote: ↑Tue Jan 24, 2023 10:01 pm Question about CENTRAL - Can I ask if anyone on here has had news of a final recall at Central for MT?
