orchidblue Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 We were in the same position Jade, DD couldn't have gone without a DaDA. It's a lovely school & we're lucky enough to live close enough that DD can come home every weekend. Fingers crossed for you. x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Circe Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 In the spirit of sharing bad news as well as good, my dd got a No for Central finals today and I can report that we are both fed up..not having a very good audition run so far but no-one ever said it was going to be easy.

swanprincess Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 Aww I'm so sorry to hear that Chaperone, it's so hard isn't it but it's not over yet so try to keep smiling- the schools have so many applications, so a 'no' may simply be because the school just can't accept everyone who is talented! Keep going, you'll find a place at a great school eventually! Xxx 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JulieW Posted February 17, 2015 Author Share Posted February 17, 2015 Sorry to hear that Chaperone but thank you for sharing as you're quite right that we don't give the bigger picture to people reading if we only report the good news. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anna C Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 Bad luck chaperone :-( Thank you for posting though - it's easy to think that everyone is getting a "yes" but of course not everyone posts bad news (or good news, come to that!) so it's sometimes hard to get things in perspective. Wishing your dd lots of luck for any forthcoming auditions she may have. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure I can actually be bothered to change my travel arrangements yet again and lose more money and feel like cancelling it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

orchidblue Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 To give slight hope to the no's, when auditioning last year my DD got a no from the school which in her mind was her first choice. Having moved on and got a yes and a DaDA offer, we then received an email offering a place at the first school. Turned it down and went with the yes and DaDA and has never been happier. Just shows that no doesn't always mean never. Keep hopeful. 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gobsmacked but absolutely over the moon!x Fabulous news anaballerina. I have been watching your journey with special interest as like you, my DD will be auditioning when she is 18 and may well go for similar places to you. I'm thrilled for you because you deserve your chance, but also because you give us hope that there are still good options at 18. Thanks for sharing your story and good luck for the future. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Circe Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 Having got a 'no' from Central earlier in the week my dd has now had a 'Yes to finals' letter. Seems there was an admin glitch that meant she got both letters and the 'Yes' is the correct one. Strangely enough this actually happened to her once before with an associate scheme...perhaps a peril of having a surname near the end of the alphabet. So, thats a bit of a turnaround and we're all feeling distinctly less fed up! 27 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
