The STAR App is now Free to all students, parents, educators and coaches.
When we released The STAR APP in the summer of 2018, it was the only fully automated college audition software available in the country. And in 2021 it still is. It is the go-to tool for high school performing arts students who are interested in pursuing musical theatre, acting, dance, design tech and vocal performance on a college level.
What is STAR? STAR is a fully automated web-based platform that helps the student, parent, educator and coach organize all the moving parts of the college audition process. With a current database of over 340 programs, your can organize, store, and compare all your college search data in one place. STAR will send automated deadline reminders on applications and pre-screens. It monitors the step-by-step progress of the application, prescreen and audition. It has a custom calendar for prescreens/auditions and every upcoming deadline, cloud-based media storage and a resume builder. It’s quite impressive and we are the only company who does this exclusively.
Why make access to STAR free? One of our primary goals when developing the STAR APP was to help students discover a wide diversity of exceptional programs. We know there is a right fit for anyone who wants to pursue the arts. This process is overwhelming and can be very expensive. We believe every student should have the same level of access to colleges across the country.
It is our sincere hope that this will help young performers through this often-difficult process and make our tool part of every experience. Please help us spread the word to your performing arts community.
