BALLROOM DANCE INCOMING FRESHMAN DANCE TALENT AWARD

Each year, the BYU Ballroom Dance Company offers tuition scholarships for incoming students. Applicants are evaluated on their technical expertise in the International Latin and International Ballroom styles, as well as on the strength of letters of recommendation from their current formation team coaches.

Applicants who are not awarded a scholarship will still receive a placement recommendation within the Ballroom Dance Company and our technique program, provided they are admitted to the university.
