PLEASE NOTE: for Digital Submissions, this Interview section is written. While we will accept submissions without an in person interview, we find that we are best equipped to evaluate if you are a good fit for the program if we can also have a conversation about your work. Therefore, we highly encourage signing up for an in-person audition or contact us for a virtual meeting. If this is not possible, we will do our best to review your portfolio on its own.
