Is it OK to swear in auditions for drama schools?
I have seen very mixed advice on this everywhere. I am going through the process of trying to figure out monologues to audition to universities with. Is it ok to swear? What is the limit for too much swearing?

My daughter’s monologue ( selected by an acting teacher ) had swearing in it and didn’t seem to be an issue or count against her. The monologue was a part which was written for her age range.

Many plays contain swearing. The young people auditioning are adult, or very nearly adult, when auditioning, and the panel are trained actors themselves. I can't see a problem!
