College for Dancers 101

Going to college for dance is about learning to mature your relationship with the art form  while building habits that support your transition into adulthood. 

Day One of the College Summit is about building a strong foundation of support for your dancer. Understanding the college landscape and what your dancer will need gives them the best opportunity to  find the right program for them. Some colleges lead to specific career industries, while others train dancers in a general way. Come get an aerial view of the industry before we jump in!
