Admission Information University Admissions Application Recent steady increase in applications to UGA has created higher entrance requirements, so a respectable high school GPA and SAT score join aptitude in dance as requirements for admission to the dance major program. To receive the UGA admissions application, make a request to:
Academic Building The University of Georgia Athens, GA 30602 Entrance Auditions All dancers seeking entrance to the Department of Dance as freshmen or as transfer students during the 2008-2009 year are required to submit an application (including a 200-250 word statement of purpose for majoring in dance and a photograph) no later than one week before the audition dates below and participate in a departmental audition on one of these dates:
Dancers wishing to major in dance but entering UGA prior to auditioning for the major program are given "provisional dance major" status, if passing a placement audition the first day of classes of the semester. Provisional majors are placed in dance major courses at the appropriate level and should complete the next scheduled formal audition. Dancers are accorded full recognition as dance majors by the University only after completing all University Core requirements Area A-F. » See additional information about auditions here. Scholarship Application Unless a student requests otherwise, each student auditioning for entrance into the dance major program will be considered for a Lucy Lampkin Dance Scholarship. For the 2009-2010 year one $1,000 scholarship will be available for the freshman class and several scholarships will be available for each of the sophomore, junior, and senior classes through Lucy Lampkin and THE FRIENDS OF DANCE.

Typically a student declares the minor in the freshman or sophomore year and takes required coursework during the sophomore, junior and senior years.
