PPAS High School Admissions

Virtual Open House, School Tour and Program Spotlight Videos

High School Admissions, including auditioning for PPAS, will be handled through the MySchools web application.  If you have not registered for a MySchools account, go to the following page:

https://www.myschools.nyc/en/

Auditioning for PPAS High School programs will begin with recorded audition videos that you prepare and submit to the ‘Additional Materials’ section in your MySchools account.
​
Start to prepare now: criteria for videos required for PPAS will be the same as other schools with similar programs.  This way you will only need to prepare videos once for multiple schools and/or programs.  The criteria are listed at the webpage below:

PPAS High School programs are as follows

Drama
Dance
Classical Vocal Music 
​(Use the criteria under ‘vocal music’.)
Musical Theater 
(For Musical Theater we will only look at one dramatic monologue and the musical theater song video.  If you are also applying to drama programs, you will have to submit two contrasting monologues as per the criteria.  For the PPAS Musical Theater program, we will only look at the first monologue in your dramatic monologue video.)

​If you are applying to more than one program, you must list them separately on your High School Application in your MySchools account.  Be sure you use the correct codes when completing the application.  They are:

Drama: M81J
Dance: M81N
Classical Vocal Music: M81K
Musical Theater: M81H
