Nancy19 Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 Reading lots of other threads about audition results letters arriving, seems sometimes the 'yes' letters arrive on different days to the 'no' and 'waiting list' letters. Does anyone know if this happens with the associate letters? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2dancersmum Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 I'm not sure that happens with Associate letters - perhaps centre by centre but so much depends on the post in your area too. We always seemed to get results from everything - auditions/associates/NYB at least 2 or 3 days after everyone on the forum regardless of the good or bad news in the envelope. Good luck to all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

afab Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 Maybe you should not expect an answer so soon. At SA audition, they told us they would TRY and send them this side of Easter. The key word here being "try"... Good luck with the wait! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Smiles Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 No Smiles for us today, it's a 'no'. She got over it ( we think). She will try again next year... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nancy19 Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 Well obviously the 'touching' in audition was a bad thing!! Just had 'no' letter. Oh well, daughter seems keen to move on and get to central audition. Good luck to everyone still waiting xx???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Smiles Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 (edited) I personally think its not a bad thing. I like to think that they saw potential and they were attracted hence the attention but that just me. I also like to think she is good but there are others who are better. It's her first audition and the chances are so slim and we knew that for a start. She has not done JA'S even. We are not defeated until we stop trying :-) I would recommend Tring Nancy21. My dd will have her first CBA assessment next month and will have a report which will be so useful for prep for next RBS audition. As consolation, we booked her the Tring musical theatre summer course boarding for a week. They do have ballet too but the date is not convenient for us. Good luck with other auditions :-) and perhaps will be back in the forum next year comparing notes :-) Edited April 8, 2014 by Smiles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nancy19 Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 Hi Smiles. Thank you!! Can I PM you with a few questions about our DD and Tring x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dancermum Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 Also a no for mids for us... very expected so DD not really disappointed. We saw this year's auditions as a learning curve and hopefully next year she will go in with more confidence (as will know what to expect)... just need to get her to believe in herself and control the nerves before next time!! Hope some of you had better news for MAs & congratulations to those that got in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Smiles Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 oh I am sorry DanceMum. We will be back next year. I heard from RBS that this year had an unprecedented high number of auditions as well as the summer school and also lots of changes going on. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nancy19 Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 Are there any 'yes' today or perhaps they go out at a different time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abitwornout Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 My dd auditioned at Manchester. Still no mail for us. Hopefully it will arrive soon. So very sorry for the no's. I'm almost dreading getting the letter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dancing girl Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 Hi abitwornout, dd also auditioned at Manchester and we did hear today, luckily she got a yes so good luck and hope you have good news soon. The waiting is so hard! 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dancingmuppet Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 Congrats on the yes and sorry for the no's. Last year we heard a day later than everyone else who got a yes or no (also Manchester audition) and dd got swl. Sorry to add to the speculation and tension! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dancing girl Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 Dd got a no from rb summer school last year but did Elmhurst and loved every minute. Might be worth looking at that too Nancy21? Never tried Tring so it would be good hear more about that too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abitwornout Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 I felt sick opening the letter this morning, but it's good news my dd has got a yes for Manchester. So very pleased for her. I know she will appreciate how lucky she is to get offered a place. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pas de chat Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 It is a much expected no for us - onwards and upwards! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moka Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 Well done to all the yes's and keep going all the no's. It was a SWL for my DD which I was very happy with as I thought it would be a straight no due to the number auditioning and me not thinking she had quite the right body shape. Good luck to everyone else waiting for replies x 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest balletmum16 Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 Can I ask if any non JAs have got waiting list. We have been given SWL as have the other two JAs from our centre and two that we know from another centre. I'm just interested if the Royal are doing the same with MAs as they appear to do with summer school and placing all JAs on to SWL rather than giving them a no.

dancingmuppet Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 That wasn't the case last year at my dd Ja centre. Out of 15, 2 boys and 13 girls, 5 girls got a MA place, 3 girls and both boys got swl and the other 5 girls got a no. One of the girls then went on to get a place off swl.

JulieW Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 Some years ago now but my daughter and some of her JA friends got outright nos for MAs. We had already realised at that point, when she was already far more mature physically than the current MAs, that it probably was going to be a no!

Pas de Quatre Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 Some years ago too, I had two pupils of the same age, one was a JA the other I hadn't even sent to audition for JA as she wasn't ready (she had joined me at age 7 and though promising had a lot of bad habits that needed ironing out). The girl who was a JA got a no for MA, the non-JA got a place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest balletmum16 Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 It's not for us - dd will be going to Elmhurst but her best dancing friend is desperate to go to Mids and every one we have spoken to or heard from (who attend JAs) has got SWL. We make the list for London 5 that we know of! That doesn't sound very short! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fusster Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 My DD is a JA at Bath. She got a straight No letter! Gutted to say the least. She really came on during this year as a JA and now I feel like she has lost the link with RBS - she also didn't get a place on the SS at WL and she will miss the friends she has made too. She has two wonderful ballet teachers and they are trying to push her on, we will just have to make the most of them and do extra privates with them to hopefully keep her up to standard to audition again next year. Congratulations to those with yes letters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
