Starting as young as 8th grade, Cheryl can help navigate the very confusing and ever changing world of dance at the collegiate level. She will help identify what schools will be the best fit for the student, supplement their current dance training with training geared for the direction the student would like to go, and create a strategic plan to submit a strong application. With a combination of virtual and in-person meetings, connections and relationships with several college dance program directors and faculty, online resources and spreadsheets, you will never have to worry that you or your student has missed a step. Once the college acceptances come rolling in, which is a problem she’d like every student to have, she will help your student evaluate their options and confidently choose the right school for them to attend.
Identify it.
Take a look at all of the possible dance programs to attend in a simple list categorized by location and type of program.
Research it.
Through location, type of program, size of program, tuition, and academic requirements, select appropriate target, safety, and reach schools.
Film it.
Using each program’s individual requirements, learn, study, and film a video submission for each school. Some require pre-screening and due to Covid some require full class.
Submit it.
Go over the application with a fine tooth comb all the way from standard information, to financial aid applications, to written essay and short answers, to the individual film before submitting.
College Solo Samples
Creating a solo highlighting each individual’s strengths while also showcasing specific skills each university would like to see is important in the college admissions process. I thrive on showcasing the true voice of each student so the school can get a feel for the exact artist that each dancer is.
