It doesn’t sound like he wants to have a career in dance if he’s planning on going to med school. So, he should probably go with his primary major being something that isn’t as competitive as dance and doesn’t require multiple auditions. One of USC’s essay options is to talk about something else you want to study - he’d have a strong, killer response for that and that may help get him to a scholarship. If you really think he may not be among the best of the dance applicants, and since you live in SC, you might want to consider asking the school if he can go watch the final round of auditions for this year’s applicant pool because he is considering applying and wants to get a feel for the process, etc. They are holding auditions over 3 weekends in January & February. Then maybe he can get a better feel for how his skills would match up.
