In the meantime here is some quick insights about this University of the Arts Dance Program from their website.
The School of Dance at the University of the Arts is one of the top undergraduate Dance programs in the United States, with a community of exceptionally creative and talented students, taught by award-winning faculty and visiting artists who offer intensive, personal attention to each young artist. Under the direction of Donna Faye Burchfield, the School has developed an innovative curriculum that prepares students for the 21st century world of professional dance, offering the depth and rigor of a discipline-based dance conservatory while engaging students in open discussions within their own practice, valuing their voices as capable of developing new and critical perspectives in dance. Dancing is what you want to do with your life and you enjoy every aspect of it: from ballet, improvisation and hip-hop to staging works both casual and formal. If you want to join one of the largest, most diverse undergraduate dance populations in the country – for whom the rigors and discipline of a conservatory are blended with intellectual life – then look no further than the Dance program at the University of the Arts. heir location in the heart of Philadelphia’s thriving art scene provides ample opportunities for students to work with professional dance companies like the Pennsylvania Ballet, Philadanco!, Zero Moving Dance Company and others.
