ATTENTION SENIORS:
YPAS/Manual handles scheduling all of the auditions/portfolio review times. The exact time of your audition or reviews will be included in the materials you will receive when you arrive at registration on October 26.
Some audition times can be in the late afternoon. All requests for early auditions for a school sanctioned event on Friday evening have been submitted to YPAS. Only school events will be considered.
If you have not informed GSA of such an event prior to October 15, we cannot guarantee you will get an audition to accommodate your event.
Please note that this schedule is provided only for planning and is subject to change.

Callback Interviews
Callbacks in the performing arts will take many forms, but students will not be required to perform an additional time on the day of College & Career Day. Some disciplines utilize feedback cards or exchange business cards for student follow-up. Some disciplines hold brief interviews in the same room where the students auditioned. Parents are allowed to attend callbacks with students. Audition assistants will post names requested by college representatives on the door of the audition rooms for each art form late in the afternoon. Dance will either be posted on the dressing room door or have individual callbacks, depending on the choice of the school. It will be the student’s responsibility to check the list and return to the room for the interview. Please note: Not all schools post callback interviews. Some college representatives have travel plans and do not stay for callback interviews. If your name is not posted, it does not mean the colleges were not interested. If you are unable to stay for callbacks, GSA can inform you of any callbacks or other follow up via email the week following College & Career Day.
Parent Waiting Area
The designated parent waiting area is the Auditorium at Manual (the same space as registration). Parents and students are more than welcome to leave campus in between activities. See the registration table or go online for a list of nearby restaurants and attractions.
PARENTS ARE NOT ALLOWED IN THE AUDITION OR REVIEW AREAS UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES UNTIL AUDITIONS AND REVIEWS ARE COMPLETE.
We really appreciate your cooperation and understanding on this!
