<p>My DD is a senior dance major at Slippery Rock University. It is in Western PA, only about 40 minutes from the Ohio border, about the same distance North of Pittsburgh - just to give you an idea. SRU is an excellent BA program, was just listed as the #2 dance school in PA. Their professors are amazing, many teach at American Dance Festival. They are extremely encouraging to those that want to dbl major. Some universities you will find are not very supportive to majoring in dance and something else. SRU is also affordable - around $21000 out of state if you keep a 3.0. There are about 8000 students who attend. My DD will be graduating early with her BA in dance then will finish up her grad classes in the spring. She has already been taking classes for grad school at the undergrad level. She has been extremely happy there overall. She looked at Ball State, Akron and Kent State and felt SRU was a better fit. She has been dancing since she was 3.</p>
