Auditions and Portfolio Reviews

Boston University College of Fine Arts | School of Theatre

1. Apply

Prior to scheduling an artistic review, prospective students should submit an application to the Office of Undergraduate Admissions.

2. Schedule an Artistic Review

Students should schedule a Performance Audition or Portfolio Review online through our Appointment Quest System. The interview season for regular decision candidates runs from mid-January thru the first weekend in March. There is also an additional transfer applicant audition/interview date in April.

Performance Auditions are held in Boston, New York City, Chicago, San Francisco, Los Angeles, and London. Portfolio Reviews are offered in Boston, New York City, Chicago, San Francisco, and at the USITT National Convention.

Once a student has submitted an audition/interview request, the School will hold a spot for that prospective student until such time as they reschedule or cancel. Audition requests will remain "pending confirmation" until the Office of Undergraduate Admissions receives the student's complete set of application materials. The School of Theatre will begin processing confirmations after the admission deadline of January 1st. If, after that time, an audition appointment remains "pending confirmation" please contact the Office of Undergraduate Admissions (617.353.2300) to obtain a list of missing application materials.
