Auditions

Your admission to our highly selective dance program is by audition. You will be required to:

• Take a 90-minute ballet class
• Take a 90-minute modern dance class
• Perform a two- to three-minute solo to the music of your choice

Your audition will also determine whether you’ll receive one of our several talent scholarships. All auditions are by appointment only. 

The audition process for a dance major or minor involves participating in a ballet and modern technique class with our current dance students, Monday through Friday. Our faculty members periodically hold off-campus recruitment auditions as well.

For further information about the audition process, please contact Beverly Frisk-Fox at 516.877.4250 or frisk-fox@adelphi.edu
