Information about applying for scholarship auditions is available at http://www.mo-thespians.com/scholarship-applicants Senior Scholarship Auditions • Scholarship Auditions are open to current seniors. Each school may submit up to four applicants in Performance or Tech, one Theatre for Life, and one Theatre Educator. A student may not apply in more than one area. All applicants must be card carrying members of the International Thespian Society, have at least a 2.5 GPA and be registered to attend the entire conference. Scholarship auditions will be held Friday and callback time will be available Saturday. • Students will need to create a profile on www.getacceptd.com. It is free to create a profile, however there is a $20 fee that must be paid on their site in order to send the profile to the MO Thespian Colleges. Students will not be officially registered as Scholarship Applicants unless this fee has been paid. • There will be a college callback breakfast from 9-12 on Saturday. • On your MO Thespian State Registration you will be asked to submit the names of the students you have approved to apply. This is for our reference only, and submitting those names will not reserve them an audition slot.

To apply, students must create a profile on www.getacceptd.com and pay the associated $20 fee to have their profile seen by over 25 college reps!
