What do I need to apply?

To apply, please submit an application, the $25 non-refundable application fee (waived during the Early Action period), and the application materials listed below. Once we receive your full application, we will send you detailed information about the audition/interview requirements.

General Application Materials:

  • Headshot/Acting Resume
  • Letter of Recommendation: Please submit one Letter of Recommendation. Letters should be from teachers, colleagues, employers, or professionals who can attest to your work ethic, talent, and dedication to your craft.
  • Initial Audition: Please prepare two contrasting contemporary monologues, each approximately two minutes in length, from a stage play and/or screenplay that you have read in its entirety. Videos should be shot in landscape framing and sent in a non-downloadable format – private YouTube link, Vimeo, etc.
  • Scholarship: If applying for a scholarship, there may be supplemental materials needed.

What happens after my application is submitted?

Callback Interviews: Interviews are held either in-person or via Zoom by appointment only, after the application has been completed in its entirety. You will be contacted by Admissions to schedule your audition date and time.

The interview is an opportunity for us to get to know you better and to hear more about where you are in your journey. It is also your opportunity to learn more about Atlantic.

Please be prepared to possibly revisit your monologue through a “working session.” Also, please be prepared to discuss why Atlantic Acting School will help you to achieve your artistic and career goals.

When should I apply?

We interview prospective students at specific times during the year. Classes are filled regularly. Please check individual programs for application due dates.
