Artistic Applications
Overview
In addition to applying to Emerson College, all applicants to the Emerson College Department of Performing Arts must complete a program-specific Artistic Application on Acceptd and pay a $27 Artistic Application fee*.
Musical Theatre Applicants
- Must start their Artistic Application with a prescreen and can choose to do so before or after applying to Emerson College.
Applicants to All Other Performing Arts Programs
- Are required to apply to Emerson College before beginning an Artistic Application on Acceptd.
Once your application to Emerson College has been received, the Office of Undergraduate Admission will email you an Emerson Admission Office ID Number.
