Juilliard

has anyone gotten the final email/phone call with admission decisions?

[kittykat]

darling,

this is awful isn't it? I know how much we've already discussed this and I guess part of me is as curious as you are but I noticed that your post was at around two in the morning. We both have reached an unhealthy obsession.

And, while I'm curious to the extremes so much of me is so scared that i wont get it. I've wanted this for so long in the depths of my heart, unbeknownst to almost everyone. I never felt worthy. And only a few people know how much we both have sacrificed to reach this point. I just don't want this to hurt as much as I'm sure it will if we don't get in.

 

ruv you. kitty

Did you all get the email from them stating that they are still in the decision process, and thank you for your patience?

[kittykat]

[kittykat]

Congrats KittyKat! did you ever attend their summer program by any chance?

[Momof3darlings]

Thanks ddm3! I am happy to hear of a recent ballet placement from Juillard! Very good news to hear.

I am thinking of auditioning for Juilliard, and was wondering if anyone could provide a schedule of what a typical day in the BFA prgram is like?

 

Also, awhile ago I was watching "Save the Last Dance 2". In the movie, a dance major could be dismissed from the program if they spent too much time in the "third line", the "first line" being the best/most improving dancers. Is this an actual practice in Juilliard ballet classes?

 

One more question: do the Juilliard dancers perform any ballets, or only modern works?

Hi,

I'm also thinking of applying to Juilliard this year and was wondering what previous dance experience other people who are applying have?

I'm not sure if I've had enough training to even try applying.

 

Thanks

Do Juilliard dancers ever perform in pointe shoes, or is their work primarily in bare feet/on flat? Also, I understand that there are optional pointe classes. Are Juilliard students allowed to take regular ballet classes on pointe?

For the audition solos, do they prefer contemporary, or is there no preference? There is no specification on the website.
