THE FULL DTCB EXPERIENCE

Auditions are open to graduating high school seniors or students who are eligible to enter into undergraduate college beginning Fall 2026.
VIRTUAL COLLEGE FAIR
Find the right program for YOU! Our college fair provides you the opportunity to learn about the unique qualities each school provides, ask questions, and network with college representatives.
AUDITION
DTCB’s biggest attraction! Our audition provides graduating seniors the opportunity to audition for up to 60 top dance programs all at once. At least 60% of schools will accept submissions through the DTCB audition.
EDUCATIONAL PANELS
Designed to help you navigate the college admissions process, our panels cover everything from financial aid to careers in dance. Hear from industry professionals about how you can make the most out of your college experience.
MASTERCLASSES
Dancing together outside of the DTCB Auditions is an important part of our event! Participating in our classes is a great way to experience college level classes in an intimate setting.
HEAR FROM PAST DTCB STUDENTS
The event was a perfect way to “prepare” for the upcoming college application season. The classes were high level, the college fair and auditions were presented in an unintimidating environment, and the generous scholarship offers were a needed boost of confidence for my daughter. I truly appreciate what DCTB provides for aspiring young artists.
2024 Parent
DTCB was an amazing way for me to connect with many colleges! It led me to [my current university] where I am having an extraordinary experience.
2020 Student
I think that going to DTCB helped me see how many colleges I could attend and be a dance major. Not only that but it helped me get my name and face out there to audition for them! I think that it kickstarted my dance career. Without it I wouldn’t have found out about my university and I wouldn’t be where I am today in the professional dance world!
2019 Student
I was beyond grateful to DTCB because I was introduced to schools I hadn’t even considered and financially I was able to audition for so many schools at once without the additional travel costs.
