Do I have to prepare for my audition or portfolio review?

Do I need good grades to get in CAPAA?

All applicants for CAPAA must demonstrate a minimum academic GPA of 2.8 with no failing grades for the two semesters prior to the audition. If a student meets these criteria, passes the audition and is offered enrollment, the offer is contingent on meeting academic requirements for the entire 2025-26 academic year. Students who do not continue meeting the academic requirement may have the offer to enroll in CAPAA rescinded.

How do I prepare for my audition/portfolio review?

You will find a detailed breakdown of the criteria required for auditions/portfolio review under each discipline.

How are the auditions judged?

Each applicant is adjudicated by a number system rubric based on each discipline's specific requirements and by CAPAA faculty and industry professionals. The applicants with the highest overall audition score and who have met all other application and academic requirements, will be offered enrollment.

When do applicants receive their audition results?

Acceptance letters are EMAILED within one week of your audition date.

If I am not accepted to CAPAA this year, may I audition again?
