[quote=Anonymous]Dickinson and Muhlenberg are good suggestions and test optional would be fine-they do merit aid based on GPA.

What you probably want is a school with a BA program if she wants to double major. BFAs with a second major are crazy hard to do.

So, I think Indiana and Utah would be no gos.

Shenandoah in Winchester might actually be worth a look. They have a great dance program, but offer a BA option that allows more flexibility. They also are pretty strong in sciences.

Don’t rule out Goucher - it might work for your daughter.

UMBC has a nice dance program, too, and would be in state tuition.

Some other thoughts on schools with BA Dance-Bates, Colby, schools in the Five College Consortium, holy cross, springfield, tufts, alma, hope, western Michigan, UNH, rider, Stockton, Buffalo, Colgate, Hamilton, Hobart and William smith, Hofstra, Rochester, Sarah Lawrence, skidmore, Vassar (don’t think they have a degree, but a great company), Desales, Drexel,  Mercyhurst (very ballet focused), seton hill, slippery rock, ursinus, Roger Williams, salve Regina, Vermont, Hollins, JMU, sweet briar, Richmond.

My daughter is applying to several of these above, but her grades are not anywhere near as good as your child’s. She has ODU as a top choice and might apply to Radford, too. She likes Randolph, which only has a dance minor. Another she is applying to is Meredith in NC. We just visited Dean College on Monday and she loved it - well regarded dance program that we got the wonderful surprise she had already been accepted to. She may also apply to Northern Michigan and Lindenwood near St Louis.[/quote]
