  • don’t know how good the ballet instruction is, but the rodeo is sure good.
  • perhaps too far from “west coast”?</p>

<p>Dance dept (one can get a BFA in Dance…plenty of ballet courses):
<a href=“http://www.uwyo.edu/th&d/[/url]”>http://www.uwyo.edu/th&d/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>Rodeo club (member of NIRA):
<a href=“http://uwadmnweb.uwyo.edu/Rodeo/[/url]”>http://uwadmnweb.uwyo.edu/Rodeo/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>…</p>

<p>However, holding to your west coast wish, here’s the best academic school I could find with dance dept & rodeo, & its big enough to cover your other academic interests:
CAL POLY San Luis Obispo
dance dept:<a href=“http://cla.calpoly.edu:16080/thtrdanc/dance/index.html[/url]”>http://cla.calpoly.edu:16080/thtrdanc/dance/index.html&lt;/a&gt;
rodeo club (NIRA): <a href=“http://www.cagr.calpoly.edu/Clubs/rodeo.asp[/url]”>http://www.cagr.calpoly.edu/Clubs/rodeo.asp&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>heck, the rodeo club even has scholarships (plus, looks like they are very good at rodeo), & Cal Poly is a very good school, and has both business & education schools, so you are covered academically.</p>

<p>…</p>

<p>If you can forego your geographic restrictions, you may also wish to check out some of the other bigger schools that are in the NIRA, as they are more likely to have the ballet & other academics you’d like. Here’s a few NIRA schools, listed by highest USNews rank:

  • U of Georgia
  • Texas A&M
  • Michigan State
  • Iowa State
  • U of Arizona
  • U of Nebraska
  • Colorado State
  • Washington State</p>
