Anyone have insights to share about this program? It seems to have a good reputation, but I’m having a hard time getting much specific or first-hand info about the program.

I have read several times that the auditions are huge and kind of a mess, with cuts happening all over the place and not always seeming to make sense.

My dd is very excited about the fact that they have an actual choreography concentration, and all the different dance styles that they offer (jazz and tap are even required in the choreography concentration). She is less excited about the urban setting and basically no campus, although is willing to consider it since it’s NYC with all that brings (and in a very nice part of NYC).

She has already submitted her academic application and is finishing up her (extensive) dance supplement. Still on the fence about auditioning–we may try to visit before deciding, since there are a number of other schools in the NYC area that she still wants to visit.

Any information appreciated!
