Im 14 and have panic attacks constantly because I’m so worried about getting into this college or atleast one as good I hope to god I get into this when I’m older😂

[@itsyagirldiam247]

im sure you'll get in

[@phoenixfranke7434]

ItsyagirlDiam 24/7 Thanks I’m going to give it my all.

[@owenkrahl7446]

Juilliard is a difficult school, so make sure you practice. I personally make schedules for instruments I play, but as long as you practice a lot, you'll be fine.

[@isabelaguilar5175]

Same girl, I'm so scared, I really want to get in. It is one of my biggest dreams, but I don't know if I'm good enough :(

[@alexplayscello2124]

Me too. I’m 14 as well and practice 2-3 hours a day. This year, I’m auditioning for the Dreyfoos school of the arts for cello. I’m planning on auditioning for schools like Juilliard, Eastman, Manhattan school of music, and Curtis for music but I also have some other colleges in mind. I know I’m only in 8th grade, and my future is way ahead of me but I’ve been stressing out about this topic for a while now. I hope all of the effort I put into cello will get me into a top music school.

[@emafedorcovaite6212]

I’m 13 and i’ve been dreaming about getting in this school for over an year, i know it’s 5 more years, but every time i play my instrument i just say to myself “i have to do better to get there” and it’s really helping :D

[@jenifersantos9859]

I understand you lol, and I agree, I don't think it's ever too early to start practicing, and think about your goals, good luck :)

[@themusicturtle234]

I really want to go to this college when I graduate, I only have a couple of years to be prepared

[@isabelaguilar5175]

Same, I only have 4 or 5 years to learn how to play the piano and become good at it, and I know that most of the people auditioning have been playing since they were childs. I don't know man, I'm so scared haha. I really want to get in :( Pd: Sorry for my bad english lol

You don't need Juilliard :D

[@priyac7054]

@@aspectpt9765 it's not about "NEEDS" in the first place, it's about WANTS. That's now how dreams and ambitions work! What you want you want, means no one should be telling you otherwise, what you want is what your soul needs from your heart and mind, and hence what you need from life. Maybe Juilliard to this guy is a need for him in that way.

[@jjbazunu9548]

same as well😊i want to get into Juilliard’s acting program or at least NYU Tisch😊 I live in Ireland so I hope that at least gives me some type of advantage since I would be an international student.

[@bingoo2412]

Adam Driver and my younger aspirations as well as Adam Driver brought me here. I'm 20 with 0 acting experience but I really want to go here. Never acted before but I'd love to do it. Any tips for a newbie getting into acting late?

[@我不知道-e9p]

I would say find some acting classes and just jump in!! And practice the processes of auditioning and working on a part! Practice doing monologues! And be consistent!! Good luck!!

[@HoneyedShe]

I'm in the exact same place. I'm 19, never acted before and like many others, just know acting is my true passion, and want to audition for Juilliard in the summer. We'll see how it goes. Good luck my friend!!

[@我不知道-e9p]

@@HoneyedShe Good luck!!!❤ I hope you get in!!

[@HoneyedShe]

@@我不知道-e9p omg, thank you so much ♡♡♡

[@promisefried5766]

You cant just have no experience and jump into it. Start with ensembles in smallee shows. Then work your way up. Do not expect to get lead role and into Julliard with no experience whatsoever. People who go to Julliard work for it and have for years. Hope this helps

[@gracel3247]

I can’t wait to come and tour the school in April!

[@Emi-cw9tn]

I'm 14 and danced when I was 8. I'm trying to get back into it to accomplish my dream of going here and becoming a dancer once I graduate from high school. I'm 4 years away from having to audition and I'm already nervous because I don't have much experience, just a passion for it.

[@jenifersantos9859]

Hey, me too, I think our passion and determination are just the first step towards achieving our goals; soo good luck :)

[@jjbazunu9548]

I’m 14 as well and I’m so scared to audition for the BFA Acting Program but I have 4 more years to prepare so😊

[@thechickensnuggets6725]

Send in an audition tape like some others have done

[@sircookieknight8566]

It is, just go on the website and look at the requirements for international students.

[@jenifersantos9859]

Sure, They have some instructions for the application of international students, good luck:)

[@zahraimran4788]

[@bingoo2412]

You should go with the natural accent, they might think it i more unique

[@kimdixon]

Someone send this to axel Webber

[@Bastard_Orphan]

Can someone apply for Jilliard if they have no experience in acting, does not play any instruments and has a mediocre singing voice? Also how many monologues should someone have?

[@priyankarani360]

Hey , Is it necessary to have a high school degree to get into julliard???
