Program-level earnings are reported only when enough graduates are matched to tax records; blank cells mean the cohort was too small.

Applying to the dance program

Most BFA and many BA dance programs require an audition — usually a ballet and a modern or contemporary class, sometimes a short solo — in addition to academic admission. Check the department's audition dates early; see our guides to choosing a dance program and preparing for an audition.
