Do some more investigation into schools that your D is interested in. At many schools, it is not particularly difficult to double major in dance and theater as a BA. My D goes to American University and almost all theater students do a double major in four years. In fact, my D is double majoring in musical theater and history, with a minor in African American studies AND still took a dance class every semester. All in four years. She specifically chose to study at American because of the flexibility in their curriculum.
