Don't you have a given repertoire to play from that school?
I know that it's not always like that...
The Conservatoire in Antwerp asked for: 1 Etude, 1 Prélude & Fuga (JS Bach), 1 Classical sonata and 1 piece to your own likings.
The Conservatoire in Leuven, where I'm going to audition soon, just says: 4 Repertoire pieces, one of them an Etude.
But still, I'm going to make sure that i have a variaty of works to play, I'm playing Bach what so ever, an Etude what so ever and a Classical sonata what so ever, the rest that i play will be pieces to my liking...
Maybe this helps you a bit? I don't know, I'm only discovering all of that myself just now, you have some nice works to play (as I can read in your post), but a little bit to much Liszt for my taste, but who am I? Just my opinion, hoping that you find it a bit helpfull... Succes!

3 overplayed Liszt pieces and a Chopin etude don't seem like the way to best go about this...
I could give you a HUGE list of works to try out for auditions, but I feel that they have been covered by tons of other audition threads. They ought to be here somewhere, go search for them and you'll find an answer.
