Dance levels for MT majors

Can any current students offer up to date info on how Ithaca handles MT freshman with strong dance skills? Can they level up starting freshman year, or is the only option to go through with your year starting with basic ballet, tap, etc.? There is nothing on the website and the info on this page is old. Thank you in advance.

How about current students who passed and were weakest on dance? Yikes, son is struggling with prescreens and has to learn that Ithaca combo.
