Performing Arts Audition Schedule
Auditions are required for applicants to Theatre & Performance, Theatre Education & Performance, and Musical Theatre applicants who have successfully prescreened. Please read the specific instructions for those programs.
Performing Arts auditions are conducted in-person and virtually.
Please be advised that the scheduling of auditions is a first-come, first-served process and space is limited. If you apply to an Onstage program at Emerson College you will be responsible for scheduling your own audition using Acceptd. Understand that the Artistic Application Deadlines represent the last opportunity to complete the required artistic part of your application and applying at the deadline will limit your options. We highly recommend that you start the Artistic Application process early.
If you wish to be considered for Early Action or Early Decision you must schedule and complete an Early Action or Early Decision audition.
