Master of Fine Arts
The Master of Fine Arts (MFA) is designed to prepare students for a variety of career options. Please visit the Dance Section of the General Catalog online for detailed information on degree programs and courses.
The MFA degree program concentrates on choreography and/or performance. Applicants whose credentials reflect exceptional ability and potential in choreography and/or performance along with the ability to be self-motivated as working artists while fulfilling artistic objectives are welcomed. Admission is based on an interview, audition, review of videotaped performance and choreographic work, résumé, three letters of recommendation, and undergraduate transcripts. The MFA degree program is designed to be completed in six semesters in residence, but can be achieved in five or less, depending upon the candidate's course and assistantship load.
