Along with the suggestions above–are there other dancers in your D’s studio who are doing on-line programs–ask them for suggestions too. If your D is thinking about doing a dance BFA at a place like NYU–grades will matter. On-line programs vary in academic quality and may not prepare your D for the SATs.

My D was on a US national team (ranked 4th in the US in her sport when she retired). She started out in an excellent public hs but transfered to a private, independent hs that was willing to work with her training/competition schedule and waived requirements like PE class (she trained 4-5 hours a day) let her meet fine arts requirements by taking a course at a local junior college in the summer.
