| Most of the people accepted into Juilliard and similar kinds of acting schools are those who have been pretty much standouts of their high school and/or college productions, and some may already have some professional experience. They've been competitive by already doing auditions, winning roles and going through the process of learning roles, rehearsing them and having experienced doing shows in front of live audiences. They have already shown a commitment in time and energy to the stage, unlike this person, and most of the applicants will be rejected, same as when they start auditioning for professional productions. |
