Entrance Audition and Interview (EAI) Days 2025-2026
Join us on campus to learn more about our programs, meet our faculty, and be considered for talent awards!
In previous years, the Department of Theatre and Dance conducted its annual Entrance Audition and Interview Day (formerly titled Talent Award Day) in January. Beginning this year, we are excited to offer two opportunities for students to audition or submit a portfolio for review – one in the fall (early November) and one in the winter (mid-January).
This is a chance for prospective students to audition or submit a portfolio to be considered for department talent awards. Students must intend to apply to the ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø in order to participate. Interested students may attend in-person or submit materials virtually.
Please note:
- While an audition/portfolio review is not required for acceptance into the Theatre major, auditions are required for placement into Dance technique classes and acceptance into the Performance and Choreography concentration of the Dance major.
- EAI Days are designed for prospective students interested in majoring in Theatre or Dance. However, students must still apply to the ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø through the Office of Admissions.This is a separate process from applying for departmental awards or scholarships. View more information about the College's admissions requirements and processes.
