Regattah Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 Hi dancer15. What kind of 'more' are you looking for? Â Â Is it that you want to hear from people who have DC there/study there themselves? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joemill Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Hi my son also had his audition at rambert yesterday, there were about 20 boys in the afternoon and 8 got called back to do their solo, then 6 got called back for interview and physical. My son was one of them ☺ just have to wait now for a reply!! He really loved the school. Congratulations to all who have had a yes so far.

Moneypenny Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Last year it was a full two weeks for results from Rambert. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regattah Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 (edited) For us it was a little bit short of 2 weeks. Auditioned on the 26th Jan and received email results on the 4th Feb. Ironically my son's (not the dancer) and then my birthdays! Edited February 26, 2015 by Regattah 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regattah Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Joemill - there weren't any boys there the day we were there. I was wondering if they had separate days. Was it boys both morning and afternoon for you? Â Hope you deal with the wait better than me - I lost an awful lot of sleep! And of course I also hope you get the news you want! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Circe Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 On tuesday this week there were all girls in the audition in the morning so I assumed there were no boys but then the boys all turned up for the afternoon audition...must have been over 20 of them. Quite a good approach to see them separately I think. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lilacfairy Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Hi Joemill it was 10 days and my daughter received an email . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joemill Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Yes there was girls in the morning and then the boys in the afternoon, I hate the waiting part it's horrible!! My son hasn't done an all boys audition before and we didn't know it was this until we turned up, he was shocked lol so regattah is your daughter going to accept the place and how long do they give you to let them know??

Regattah Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 so regattah is your daughter going to accept the place and how long do they give you to let them know?? Joemill, we received the acceptance email on the 4th and had to accept it by the 18th. I know that some people on this board have expressed disapproval of doing this before, but we have accepted the place whilst we continue the audition process with the other 3 schools she applied for. (She also applied for her own school as it was encouraged, but we have turned down that offer as she wants to concentrate more on ballet or ballet/contemporary and her own school becomes more triple threat in the first year of upper school). We are continuing with the others as I feel we need to complete the process and that she can only make a true decision if she has the complete picture, but Rambert is right, right, right up there! 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jazzpaws Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 I think you made the right move Regattah - your DD wants to know all her choices before she makes a decision. After all. there are plenty on the waiting list that would be over the moon to accept a place at a slightly different date.No harm is done by keeping your options open 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joemill Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 I agree too, what other schools has she applied for? My son had done London contemporary, rambert and has an audition for northern in April. But he really really liked rambert. When we were there the lady said that there was only about 40/45 places and that they would have had about 500 auditioners so it's very tough competition!!!

Debs Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 I'm anxiously waiting for a reply from Rambert re my DD's audition on 23rd Feb. Has anyone else's DC heard yet? Our gut feeling is that it'll be a "no thanks" because although she was one of four that got an interview, no one got a physio check! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Circe Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 Hi Debs- My dd was 24th and not heard yet but they did say two weeks - though of course still checking mine and dd's email and our post practially every two minutes! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joemill Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 I am the same my son auditioned on the 24th and I think I am going slightly mad, this is torture ???? as far as I could make out they were having more auditions yesterday and today so we might hear tomorrow or maybe next Wednesday!! As they only audition on a Monday and Tuesday xxx 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joemill Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 My ds had his email today from rambert and he has been put on the reserve list but has been asked to go back for a recall audition on the 30th of April. I didn't think they did recalls? Anyone else heard from them? Xx 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Circe Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 Hi Joemill- just checked and DD has the same...and need to do the solo again! Getting a bit fed up of running round the country for auditions! Still its better than an outright no! 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2dancersmum Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 There were rumours last year of recalls, mentioned in the 2014 Rambert thread on the forum but I was not involved and do not know if anything happened. Â Personally I think that you both have quite positive news so congratulations. Obviously a 'yes' would have been better but it is not a 'no' and with a recall audition you at least have a timescale to go on for when you might hear. Last year there appeared to be quite a few people on the reserve list for a long time with no idea when they would hear - and there were places offered off the reserve list too so it is not a definite 'no' 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Circe Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 Yes I think you are right 2dancersmum- the reserve list sounded a bit tricky last year so at least they are channeling the reserves into one slot with known timescales. I noticed on their website that they have also brought forward final deadline for applications.

Debs Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 My DD has also recieved an email saying she is on the reserve list and a recall on the 30th. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
