Application Requirements

To be eligible for the Ð¼ÓÆÂÁùºÏ²Ê¹Ù·½ÍøÕ¾/Broadway Dreams Scholarship, applicants must have participated in a Broadway Dreams intensive in the last 4 years.  In addition, applicants must apply to and be accepted by the мÓÆÂÁùºÏ²Ê¹Ù·½ÍøÕ¾ University Office of мÓÆÂÁùºÏ²Ê¹Ù·½ÍøÕ¾.  Upon acceptance, a short application and essay are required for consideration for the мÓÆÂÁùºÏ²Ê¹Ù·½ÍøÕ¾/Braodway Dreams Scholarship.  The online scholarship application link will be sent to you once we have received your audition materials.  Your essay may be copied and pasted into the text box provided and should respond to the following prompt: What is it about a мÓÆÂÁùºÏ²Ê¹Ù·½ÍøÕ¾ degree specifically that you feel will aid you in developing your unique artistic voice and reaching your career goals? Your essay should be 250-400 words.  

Audition Requirements

Applicants will have the option to audition in person or by digital submission.  In-person auditions are held on our campus and in Chicago.  Those wishing to audition in person should contact our Audition Coordinator once they have been accepted to мÓÆÂÁùºÏ²Ê¹Ù·½ÍøÕ¾ by the Office of мÓÆÂÁùºÏ²Ê¹Ù·½ÍøÕ¾.  A list of audition dates can be found on our  page.  Applicants who elected to submit a digital audition may use either the  or use the мÓÆÂÁùºÏ²Ê¹Ù·½ÍøÕ¾ Audition guidelines found on our .  If you plan to audition for our BFA Acting program, please follow the guidelines listed on the Audition Requirements page.  Those who audition for our BFA Musical Theatre program are automatically considered for our BFA Acting program as well. 

Callbacks

In the event that a digital audition does not show our faculty what they need to see, an applicant may receive a callback.  In most cases, the initial materials submitted by applicants offer sufficient information for our faculty to render a decision.  From time to time, however, we may feel we need to see a little more from a student than their initial submission offered.  For the callback, we may ask for another song or monologue, or we may ask a student to submit the same material again making specific adjustments.  Callbacks are only offered to those from whom we wish to see more and are not an indication of any audition outcomes.
