@Newbie2Yes. There are a plethora of reasons why local dance schools might not want their students taking associate classes.

@Newbie2Yes, my pupil is off to Elmhurst and they are not allowed to do both programmes.

Just regretfully turned down a Year 7 girl's MA place in London. Fingers crossed for the SWL! It would be lovely to think of someone in this community benefiting. 🙂

@sunrise81 and @balletdreamsI assumed as much. Thank you.

Can’t believe I’m writing this, but does anyone have experience of an Elmhurst/ Birmingham MAs combo being allowed?! Or of asking to change centres?! Congratulations to the yesses, and hold on in there not the not yets. It often really is “not YET”.

@sunrise81This is SUCH useful info. Thank you so much for sharing!

Hope there’s some more happy news today! I’m on my way to read a certain email to a certain little ballerina via a balloon shop!!!

@dancermom I know about girls, but not boys. 29 girls (according to my not-always-totally-reliable pupil!) were at the second day and they’ll offer 13 girls places.

@Dancermom Agh! It’s torture!

Anyone thinking Elmhurst results today or tomorrow, or are we now assuming next week?

I think it will have to be before 31st if that's when Tring wants their final answers by.

Reserve list for my pupil too. We need to remind these children that even being considered for such a huge award is a massive achievement in itself.

Our post came today, but no letter from Tring 😢

@SJBalletOh no! Let the obsessive post checking commence!

Tring said two weeks and Elmhurst said 10 days, but that would be a Saturday…

I’ve just realised that both Elmhurst and Tring results are likely to arrive on April Fools’ Day 🤦🏻‍♀️🤣

Girls too. We received our heart-stopping email just before 5 yesterday and she has to be back at 08:30!

CONGRATULATIONS @Julsgalaxy!!! So exciting. Enjoy celebrating!

I'm sorry @Ottobotto Great he has Elmhurst recall to look forward to though. The Elmhurst process for girls this week is pretty brutal isn't it?! Does anyone know what sort of time they'll send the email telling them whether or not they're through to the Thursday? My pupil is fortunate in that she can stay with family but if you need a hotel, it's a nightmare!

@Romy La WL è molto lunga. C’è Una possibilità ma è piccola. Mi dispiace.

Mark Annear currently has Covid. I don’t know if that may slow things down.

There is no commitment to attend if offered a place at a later stage @Canadiandancemom. If you can't attend, another child will be ecstatic!

@NYCIt is very disconcerting! I think the answer to your question is that there is A chance, but not very much of one!

Waiting list for my pupil too. Did everyone else on the waiting list get the message "Further information will be sent closer to the event" when you accepted the waiting list place? Seems a strange message given there probably won't be any "event" for them!
