<p>Having done the college tours a couple of years ago with a special interest in the dance programs, I would advise that anyone looking at dance programs arrange for a tour through the dance program. When we took that approach we usually got to talk with the director of the program, to view dance classes in action, and to talk with dance students. We found this much more informative and helpful in finding the school that might be a good fit. We found if we signed up for a regular tour with the admissions office (particularly at a university) we learned little or nothing about the dance program, though you get information about the dorms and the like, you really should go directly to the dance department to get inormation about that program.</p>
