Guest notsotinydancer Posted April 5, 2003 Report Share Posted April 5, 2003 I'm only a sophomore in high school, but I'm very curious on colleges. I'm looking for a college in the Minneapolis/St. Paul MN area or within a few hundred miles of there. I would like it to have a dance program but not be super competetive. I'm probably an intermediate dancer so I wouldn't be able to handle professional level. Any suggestions? Link to comment
Administrators Victoria Leigh Posted April 5, 2003 Administrators Report Share Posted April 5, 2003 Hello notsotinydancer, welcome to the Young Dancers' forum on Ballet Alert! Online I am not familiar with dance programs in that area, however I will recommend that you order Dance Magazine's College Guide. It's a good resource for finding college dance programs all over the country! Link to comment

Hjete Posted April 6, 2003 Report Share Posted April 6, 2003 I got it at the library last year and saved some money ;) but I'm not sure if most libraries get it. ?? (You might want to check it out, notsotinydancer) I'm so happy to live within a short drive of my city's Fine Arts Branch regional library which has more dance books than I could read in a year Also, n.s.t.d. - Best of luck with the college search process...I just finished mine and happily found a school where I plan on minoring in dance next year. My situation sounds much like yours because I'm an intermediate dancer who definitely wants to continue in college...hope you find a school that is perfect for you, and you are wise to start so early! :cool: Link to comment
Guest notsotinydancer Posted April 7, 2003 Report Share Posted April 7, 2003 Thank you guys so much!! I'll definately look into that. Link to comment
Guest Jhora Posted April 25, 2003 Report Share Posted April 25, 2003 Theres a dance program at the University of Indiana I believe...thought thats not very close. Jhora Link to comment
kitri81 Posted April 28, 2003 Report Share Posted April 28, 2003 Yes Indiana University does have a ballet program (I'm in it ), but I would classify it as pretty competitive and pre-professional. So its probably not the program that notsotinydancer is looking for. Link to comment
Guest Arak Posted May 1, 2003 Report Share Posted May 1, 2003 Some schools have you fill out a survey in your junior year that lets colleges know what you're looking for so they can start bombarding you with pamphlets and things. You can look through those pamphlets to see if any of the schools offer dance as a major. If they do, fill out their little reply card. Or, you can get on collegeboard.com and start searching for schools in that area. Link to comment
