BFA at Dominican

How to Apply
APPLICATION PROCESS

LINES Ballet’s BFA Program at Dominican University of California is designed for the career-oriented pre-professional dancer. Prospective students should be at the advanced level in ballet, with additional training in modern and other dance forms a plus. All applicants must submit a dance application to Alonzo King LINES Ballet as well as an Academic Application to Dominican University of California.

Transfer Students: Sophomore and junior transfer students are welcome to apply. We strongly prefer that BFA Program graduates spend a minimum of two years in our program, thus we generally do not accept transfers into the senior class. If you are interested in transferring, we recommend that you email the Program Director, Marina Hotchkiss. In your email, please describe your dance/college history, and attach a transcript if possible.

We are now accepting in-person auditions as well as video auditions. See section three below for details.
