Prescreening Videos
All programs require a prescreening video recording or portfolio, which is due with the online application. Applicants who advance through the prescreening round will be invited to audition live at NEC or, in select situations, submit a final audition recording. Video-recorded auditions are only allowed for applicants to certain programs who live outside a 500-mile radius of NEC.
