Dance B.A., with Dance Studies Concentration

The focus of this degree is to enable the student to combine dance with another area of interest and encourage the development of an individualized program of study through the selection of general education requirements as well as a focused selection of elective courses. The selection of electives should be designed to provide each student with the maximum value of a liberal arts education within a focused area of study. A student with additional interest in another field (e.g., African Studies, Anthropology, Communications, Education, Health Science, History, Psychology, Religious Studies, Theatre, Women’s Studies, etc.) should complete a focused study in that area along with the core of study in dance. Each student is required to develop a final independent project incorporating dance with his or her focused study. Dance students must continue to take at least one technique course each semester. At the end of the third semester, the faculty will determine if appropriate progression has been made for continuation in the B.A. Dance major.

Admission Requirement / Eligibility Criteria

Any student applying for admission to USF is considered international if he or she:

Is not a citizen of the United States
Is not a permanent resident alien, asylee or refugee
Is pending permanent resident alien status
If offered admission, international applicants will need to submit additional documents.

Once you have determined whether you are an international student, decide whether you are freshman or transfer status. This is important to do before you get started on your application.

Freshman Status

If you have not graduated from secondary school or completed your secondary school examinations, the State of Florida considers you a freshman, regardless of the amount of college credit you may have earned through dual enrollment, AP or IB coursework, or external examinations while in secondary school.

Thus, even though you may have sophomore or junior standing once you enroll and your credits are transferred, USF will review your application for admission as a freshman and consider you for all freshman admission scholarships. You also are considered a freshman if you have completed your secondary school studies and have attempted fewer than 12 college credits.

If you fall into this category, please follow the freshman requirements and deadlines when submitting your application.
