Monaco summer 2024

[BarbaraH]

 Does anyone have an idea how long it takes Princesse Grace to send out the results for the si's? Do they wait until the deadline?

[Ballerinamom]

I heard they are sending results on a rolling basis, as the director makes decisions. 

[Ballerinamom]

Has anyone done the summer short program before, and could you share a past schedule or at least a list of classes?  Additionally, would be great to hear about the environment at the studio…are they attentive, do students get 1:1 attention in class, how would you rate the quality of training?  We are new at this.  My daughter will be 12 this summer, so we’re on the younger end of the training and would like to understand the quality/value here.  We’re from US, so don’t know much about Princess Grace Academie.  What little I have heard was positive, but would love to hear from others about their experience.  TIA

My daughter is also applying for the first time this year. We heard amazing things about the intensive. Some people in my daughter's school went previous years and they said it was the best intensive they ever did. But, it has to be your cup of tea. They are very strict apparently. Quality of training is said to be amazing! 

 

Ballerinamom have you heard back yet? I've sent everything last Tuesday, no feedback yet. 

[Ballerinamom]

Thank you, this is helpful.  I haven’t heard anything back yet, but submitted about 2 weeks ago.  Maybe soon.  

[Ballerinamom]

By the way, did you get a second email confirming all your materials were complete?  I haven't gotten that.  I only received the initial email confirming submission.

No I haven't received the second email. Only the first... 

They haven't checked the youtube links so far either. (You tube analytics)

I've sent an email on Tuesday evening, but no reply so far...

[Ballerinamom]

When I have sent email in past, usually takes 3-5 business days to get response.  I haven’t heard anything, and our video had not been viewed. Please keep me posted.  Thank you!

Back in 2021, my Dd got her acceptance email 10th May.

Not sure if that’s helpful as everything may have changed since then.

Wow, that's long!! Hopefully things have changed indeed and they send emails quicker. 😉

We heard on 15 April last summer, hope that helps.

I received the second email to confirm that the inscription is complete. 

[Ballerinamom]

Oh, now I’m worried as I submitted before you.  Eek! I will email them.  Thanks for letting us know! 

[Ballerinamom]

Hi, has anyone received their results? Nothing here, but they told me they are sending on a rolling basis.  I submitted Feb 22.
Separately, I’m bumping deadlines on other SI commitments and payments.  My daughter (will be 12 for summer) was accepted into several other SIs, but leaning towards Boston 5 weeks, pending Monaco outcome.  Has anyone experienced both, and if so, what are strengths/differences between them? Grateful for any insight! 
 

[BarbaraH]

Nothing here either. I also check YouTube analytics to see if they already watched the video's. But not so far. Also some deadlines here. I'm waiting untill the last moment for accepting/paying others. But I won't be able to do that much longer. 

[BarbaraH]

Still no news here. Someone else maybe?

[Ballerinamom]

Nothing.  And our video was n Youtube hasn’t been watched, so I doubt will hear for another week, given we’re going into Easter holiday.  😢

Easter holiday is later in France. End of April if I'm correct.

Hi

My daughter has not heard anything yet, but one of her friends was offered a place a few days ago.

[Ballerinamom]

Nothing, and YouTube video remains unviewed.  (Sigh!)

[BarbaraH]

We just received an email 5 minutes ago!! We never expected this, but she got in. She's going to go crazy when she comes home in half an hour!!

[Ballerinamom]

Congratulations!  Still waiting…

[MomK]

Congratulations to your daughter BarbaraH!

Our videos have still not been watched 😞  We better apply earlier next year... we applied March 19.

We applied 27th of February. 

Hopefully some news for you in the beginning of next week! 🤞

[Ballerinamom]

We applied Feb 22, and our video hasn’t been watched yet either, so not sure earlier is a help. 

[Babyballerinamum]

Anybody else heard? We applied on the last day so expected a bit of a wait.  We’ve had confirmation of receipt but the video hasn’t been viewed yet. 

[Ballerinamom]

Nothing here either, and I thought we were all supposed to hear by tomorrow, April 13.  Our video hasn’t been viewed either.  So I’m guessing they are going to be late with answers.  Ugh, and we are juggling other offers, but really hoping for positive outcome here.  My poor daughter is on pins and needles, and literally just emailed me from school asking if I had a response yet.
