We have not yet had the opportunity to interview the Fordham University Dance Program, if you are associated with the Fordham University Dance Program please have someone from the program email us at Brittany@BDancewear.com to set up an interview (only takes a few minutes and it’s free).
In the meantime here is some quick insights about this Fordham University Dance Program from their website.
The Ailey School and Fordham University are partners in a highly innovative Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA) degree in dance. The BFA program offers the better of two worlds: professional dance training at the official school of Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater and an exceptional liberal arts education rooted in the Jesuit tradition of intellectual development and personal attention. Both institutions are located in New York City’s Lincoln Center area–the epicenter of the dance world. To join their prestigious program, you must have superior talent and potential for a dance performance career, good technique training in ballet and modern dance, musicality, energy, creativity, and the ability to communicate through movement. Because you will learn more than dance here, you must also have strong academic credentials, including a competitive GPA, strong writing skills, and community activities. You will study philosophy, theology, history, mathematics, languages, science, and other performing arts through Fordham’s common core curriculum, the centerpiece of our liberal arts education.
