If NYC is an option, I want to suggest looking at and/or attending the Dancing Through College and Beyond program put on each fall by Dancewave (http://www.dancewave.org/DTCB). It is a college dance fair and it draws in many different programs (BFA, BA) and some offer the opportunity to audition that weekend if you’re a senior in HS. At the very least it is a mostly one stop shop to talk with representatives about the programs, their training and what their alumni are doing. We attended this past fall and my dd also knocked out a few of her auditions. Well worth it for her!
