A virtual callback audition is available for Tisch Dance applicants who have received a callback invitation, but cannot attend an in-person callback audition. Virtual callback auditions are considered as seriously as our in-person callback auditions, and the same team of Faculty evaluators review our virtual applicants.
What To Expect: A virtual callback audition will consist of submitting a video of yourself performing a solo (up to 2 minutes in length, no pointe solos please), submitting a video of yourself responding to an improvisational dance prompt (provided by the Dance Department upon scheduling of your virtual callback), and having a 15-minute interview with a faculty member of the Dance Department over Zoom.
The pre-screening process remains the same for those participating in a virtual callback.
Virtual Callback Guidelines:
Applicants will be notified if they are invited for a callback audition in accordance with the notification plan deadlines listed below. Callback notifications will be delivered by Admissions via email and posted in the Applicant Portal.
Upon receipt of a callback invitation, applicants must schedule their callback audition in the Applicant Portal. Callbacks must be scheduled within 48 hours of receiving a callback notification.
An invitation to a callback audition is not a confirmation of admission. Failure to respond to callback invitation within a timely fashion will impact your consideration of admission to the Dance Department.
Only applicants who are being invited for a callback audition will receive a notification. Those applicants who are not invited for a callback audition will not receive a notification. Being invited to a callback, or not being invited, is not an indication of a final admissions decision to NYU.
The specific deadlines for all steps of the application and audition process are listed below. Please hold the appropriate date listed below for the “callback” listed below.
If you have any questions or find yourself in a compromised situation, please contact the department directly and we will do our best to accommodate your needs. Please contact the Tisch Dance Department at tisch.dance@nyu.edu or by phone at 212-998-1980 (Monday - Friday, 8:30am - 4pm ET).
