<p>While it’s great that your daughter has taken ownership of picking colleges, I’ve found that my helpful research was invaluable to my kids. I would suggest that both of you look at one of the many college search sites on line to find a list of a dozen or more schools that have 1) the major, 2) dance 3) good financial or merit aid. There’s a nice one right here on CC that will help with the first two, [College</a> Search - College Confidential](<a href=“http://www.collegeconfidential.com/college_search]College”>http://www.collegeconfidential.com/college_search) and this one - [College</a> Navigator - National Center for Education Statistics](<a href=“College Navigator - National Center for Education Statistics”>College Navigator - National Center for Education Statistics) is great for stats, i.e. finding out what the average financial aid award has been.</p>
