It is the student's responsibility to make an appointment for the required artistic review. You can make an appointment via the department's web page or by calling the telephone number below. Artistic reviews are held in New York and several other cities.
Early decision applicants must audition in New York and may sign up as early as October 1st. Regular decision applicants may schedule their artistic reviews beginning on November 1st. We strongly encourage you to sign up for your artistic review as early as possible. The longer you wait to make your appointment, the more difficult it will be to schedule your preferred audition date.
Complete instructions will be e-mailed to you once you have made your appointment. (In extenuating circumstances videotapes may be submitted, but students must follow specific video guidelines. Please refer to the Frequently Asked Questions section on the drama department website. Tapes that do not follow the guidelines will not be considered.)
