University of the Arts School of Dance Undergraduate, In-Person Audition

An in-person/on-campus School of Dance audition day at University of the Arts consists of two main parts: a 90-minute workshop style class combining techniques, which may include ballet, modern, improvisation, jazz and hip-hop, followed by the sharing of a solo dance. The workshop-style class is taken as a group, but every effort is made to evaluate each dancer individually. Your solo dance should be at least one minute in length and a maximum of two minutes. The solo should feature the area of dance in which the applicant is most proficient and feels most comfortable. It may be choreographed by the applicant or someone else. Musical accompaniment, if any, must be provided by the applicant on smartphone or laptop; audio equipment will be provided by the School of Dance.
