WE KNOW YOU’VE GOT QUESTIONS. LET US ANSWER THEM!
I’m a student interested in studying Dance in higher education but am not a senior. Can I still attend/register?
Yes! We encourage underclassmen to attend DTCB as it’s a great way to build relationships with colleges/universities/dance programs before you have to audition. There are so many programs out there and by attending DTCB before your senior year, you’ll gain invaluable insights to prepare you for the application process. You’ll also be able to meet school representatives, ask pertinent questions and learn directly from industry professionals.
Where can I find a list of participating schools?
The most updated information about participating schools will be posted on our website when the time comes. We will also announce programs via socials so be sure to follow us and join our mailing list to stay updated.
I see tickets are non-refundable. What if I purchased the wrong ticket or no longer want to participate?
- If you no longer wish to participate, your ticket fees will go towards our Go Beyond Fund or to support our Brooklyn non-profit organization, Dancewave.
- If you purchased the wrong ticket and would like to exchange, please see the questions below.
I bought a ticket and can no longer attend, can I transfer my ticket to someone else I know?
Unfortunately, due to capacity limitations we are unable to transfer tickets. Please email dtcb@dancewave.org if you are no longer able to attend.
If I participate in the DTCB auditions, will it count towards my application to the program?
Your DTCB audition will be considered by all audition panel programs. We recommend connecting with program representatives if you wish to explore opportunities to submit supplementary materials or want to participate in auditions hosted directly by that program.
Students are responsible for completing and submitting all application requirements outside of the audition (essays, test scores, transcripts, etc.) Keep in mind some programs require you to apply to both the school and department separately.
How will we know the results of the audition? When do schools make their decisions?
Every program is on their own timeline but will contact auditionees directly about scholarship offers and program acceptances by May 2026. If you want specific dates, connect with program representatives.
DTCB is not involved in the decision making process for any program and does not receive notification of students admission offers or scholarships. DTCB is not responsible for any correspondence between candidates and school after the event closes.
I am on the waitlist for the In Person events, when will I find out if I am accepted?
Waitlisted students will be contacted on a first come, first serve basis as space becomes available. If you’re on the waitlist and have not heard from us, send us an email at dtcb@dancewave.org.
