  1. I did wonder. We have only ever had “waiting list”, never “short waiting list” but everyone seems to talk about this so was confused. Good luck to anyone with that offer as its horrible being in limbo not knowing if it will happen
  2. Does the email actually say “waitlist” and people are assuming its short or does it say “short waitlist”? 😂
  3. Hi. I assume you have now heard back? We heard on Wednesday.
  4. They replied to my email today and will be looking at them in due course
  5. Hi. Yes we are awaiting a response also. I was worried that they hadnt received it our form so i emailed yesterday (not heard back yet). But if you are waiting then i guess they will be getting around to them.
  6. Having read old threads on here, i think parents thought it was harsh to cut them after day 1 and maybe complained. Which does happen in the professional world but when you are talking about 10/11 year olds, its a bit tough on them. My DD had a great final audition last year so enjoy it. They really look after you and it is a great experience whatever the outcome.
  7. Up until last year i believe they did used to invite children back for day 2. However last year all finalists were invited to both days but we didnt find out the schedule for day 2 until the end of day 1. I believe this years finalists already have the schedule for both days. Good luck
  8. I can recommend Elmhurst, Yorkshire Ballet Seminars and also Malvern is very good and is non selective.
  9. Congratulations. We are also week 2 Green
  10. Omg she has a place! Finally. She is so happy
  11. We are still waiting. It must be in batches alphabetically ?
  12. Nothing in Spam and its a VIP email so shouldnt go to spam confused 🤔 I will email tomorrow
  13. I have not received anything. It must be alphabetical order. What time was the email sent and who from?
  14. I dont think today is the day 😂 Would prefer it if we werent expecting it on a certain day (4 weeks after deadline/mid Feb) and they just surprised us 🤗
  15. Hi. Unfortunately we havent. My DD only decided she wanted to apply for summer at Christmas, so we applied on 2nd January. This is after making white lodge finals and still getting a waitlist place for summer. She didnt want to try again but then changed her mind and it was too late. She has had great experiences at other intensives so all is not lost but it would be nice for her experience dancing there at least once in her lifetime. But i dont think I will waste another £36 applying for Summer if its another waitlist place or even a no
  16. I think the fact that it is taking so long must mean record number of applicants so i am not holding out any hope for a Yes after 2 waitlisted places. This will be the last time we apply for summer intensive though as it just means she is not what they are looking for and i am not going to do it to myself or let her have another rejection. wishing you all the best of luck.
  17. I cant see it being today now.
  18. Wishing everyone the best of luck. Its a great school in our experience so far
  19. Parents are expected to be there for the majority of it, the interview, tour, presentation but the email did ask for parents to leave site whilst they had their ballet classes but it was really bad weather last year so we stayed put. If they insist on leaving this year, there is a Costa not far away and also Canon Park and Midlands Art Cent (MAC) which has a lovely cafe that does lovely food. Also to add, the timetable for day 2 did not come through until the end of day 1 after they had been seen. It may not follow the same process this year but will give you an idea. Also the “getting to know you” was just an informal chat with one of the teachers asking why they chose Elmhurst and what they think might be difficult being away from home etc
  20. It would be a train from Manchester airport to Harrogate with 2 changes. Where are you flying in from? Leeds airport is closer if you can fly into there?
  21. Last year they were split into groups on day 1. My DD had a physio assessment first followed by a “Getting to know you” type interview (child & parent) then there was a ballet class. Day 2 they were rearranged into different groups. Had a tour of the school, classrooms, boarding houses, Bistro etc Then there was a presentation in the theatre from key staff and then a ballet and contemporary class. My DD loved the 2 days at finals and felt at ease
  22. Sorry i am only just seeing this. They start at the level they are at. So if they have already taken their Inter F, they will start at Intermediate otherwise everyone starts at Inter F. I had this confirmed by the registrar as my DD took her Inter F before starting at Elmhurst.
  23. I believe the RAD classes used to start after Christmas but last year it was Easter and the current year 7’s have not yet started their RAD class so we are assuming Easter again this year.
