The Unified Auditions allow students to auditions for numerous university programs in one location over the course of a few days. This saves the student time and money and also allows the university to hear a wider range of students than they otherwise may see on campus. Below are this year’s dates and schools in attendance.
There are some great advantages to attending these auditions: You can travel to one central destination; Save major $ on travel; Save time for yourself and your parents; Meet other students from around the United States and get a feel for how you compare.
There are also some major disadvantages: The universities are trying to fit in a large number of people in a short time, so they may not get as much attention as in on-campus auditions; You don’t get to see the campus to see if its a good fit for you; You have no opportunity to meet the current students; You miss an opportunity to meet other faculty and staff. However, you could alway make a campus visit after your accepted. There is no “right” answer, only what works best for you and your family.
The basic info is pasted below. This information comes directly from the Unified Auditions website, so be sure to check out the official site to verify the details and sign up.
