I do believe they offer them

out quite quickly

the reserve list goes on the points they achieved in their audition they are placed in order on the list. 
you maybe able to find out where on the list they are if you ring.

There is usually a lot of movement so good luck 🤞 

In the current year 7’s 14 are MDS and yes there is a MDS waiting list x

Does your daughter enjoy it? X

Omg yes she’s living her absolute dream ! 
We’ve had home sickness but it was very short lived but I think that’s expected with them being so little still, 

They have exeat every 3 weekend so coming home for the weekend is never a million miles away plus I visit some weekends. 
massive decision but seeing how much she is loving life I know I’ve made the right decision x

Just now, SJBallet said:

Thanks. I think she meant they could take up to 20 for this years intake. it’s still a long shot with so few MDS although at 10 it’s not a million miles away from RBS or Elmhurst. 

That’s probably correct ! I never thought my daughter would be offered an Mds it does happen xx

Sorry, I thought this happened in the YDA audition but perhaps you meant white lodge? Didn’t happen to DD at white lodge either!

It was white lodge audition 

My DD was asked to remove her shoes and socks ! She was the only one in her group that was asked. They did an exercise then she was asked to repeat the exercise without her shoes and socks on. Did this happen to everyone else ?
