AngelaNYC Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 My 8th grade dd has applied to 3 performing arts high schools here in NYC. She's a dancer. One school does just an audition - 78-million dollar, brand new building, beautiful school, great neighborhood, the newest of all PA schools, founded by Tony Bennett. One does an audition and if your lucky you get a callback (Adrian Brody, Jennifer Aniston, Al Pacino, and Liza Minelli went here, among hundreds of others). This is the FAME school. The third does an audition, mails you a letter a month later if you made it to callbacks, and then if your really lucky - you make it to the interview stage (Alicia Keys, Brittany Spears, Claire Danes, and Taylor Momsen went there). Dd went all the way with all the schools. I can't stop thinking about this. One month left before we know. This is big. Say a prayer. :willy_nilly: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kareni Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 Good luck to your daughter. The whole process sounds reminiscent of the college application process -- hurry up, hurry up then wait. Regards, Kareni Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AngelaNYC Posted January 19, 2010 Author Share Posted January 19, 2010 Thanks for the well-wishes. It's funny how she's not even giving any of this a second thought. I'm the one that's a wreck. It's so hard being calm. :tongue_smilie: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
