<p>Does anyone have any experience with transferring from one BFA Dance program to another? Specifically, how many transfer spots do Tisch and Ailey have in their Dance programs?</p>
<p>I don’t know how many transfer spots are actually available or whether anyone posts this information.</p>
<p>My D has applied as a transfer student to various dance programs, including Fordham/Ailey. On our tour last summer, the Fordham admissions counsellor mentioned that it may be easier to be accepted as a transfer student vying for fewer spots - 50 transfer applications vs 500 freshman applications. </p>
<p>While freshman decisions have already been made on March 25 at Fordham, we are still waiting for a decision. We were told that transfer applications are being reviewed in the month of April. We have no idea how many applications are being considered nor do we know how many positions are left. We are hopeful, as my D felt she had a good audition and was invited to attend a Summer Intensive at Ailey.</p>
<p>Thanks quesera. My daughter will most likely do the May transfer student audition ( I know its kind of late). She did the SI two years ago and loved it.</p>
<p>Hi remidoodle,
My daughter transferred to Tisch Dance last year. I don’t know how many spots they have for transfers, but her class has two transfer students out of 25 or so. I understand that every year there are a couple. As for timing, the decision was not released until late May, not saying it will be the same for your daughter, but that was our experience.</p>
<p>My daughter has been accepted as a transfer at MM Manhattan and needs to give them a deposit by May 1, but she is still waiting to hear from NYU/Tisch, where she felt good about her audition. Not sure how this is going to play out since NYU still says decisions don’t happen until May.
Why can’t they all get on board with the same dates and make life easier?:)</p>
<p>She got into Tisch!!!Yeah!</p>
<p>Congratulations to her, remidoodle. Is she planning to attend?</p>
<p>Quill: Absolutely! She is walking (dancing) on air!</p>
<p>We are still waiting for a decision from Ailey/Fordham. It has been a long wait!</p>
<p>Hello, I am the mother of a HS jr that will be applying to many of these schools next year. Would you all mind telling me where your child is transferring from? </p>
<p>@diglass these were posted a year ago - if you want to get hold of the posters, you probably should tag them (the way I just tagged you). </p>
@remidoodle @quesera10 @quilll
Would you mind saying where your child attended before they transferred?
How did they like the program they transferred into?
Thank you!
