The Dance minor is available for students with an interest in dance who would like to minor in Dance as a complement to another major at the university. There is no audition required to declare the Dance minor.  

Dance majors are given registration priority for courses required in the Dance majors but minors may receive special consideration if they meet course prerequisites and space allows.  

A Dance minor is available for students not wishing to specialize but who have an interest in dance and want a concentration of study in the area to complement an affiliated program of study.
