Peabody Conservatory at Johns Hopkins

My daughter was accepted to Fordham/Alvin Ailey, UC Santa Barbara, UC Irvine and Peabody Conservatory for their BFA dance program. She did not get into UCLA and is still waiting to hear from NYU.

She is seriously considering Peabody/Johns Hopkins – and though this is a new program, it seems like an amazing opportunity. Anyone else here considering this for next year?

@BFADanceParent Our friend’s D is also strongly considering Peabody-JHU. She’s been accepted artistically, but is still waiting to hear from JHU for the academic side. Has your daughter already been officially accepted academically as well? Regarding the program, I know they are very excited about the opportunity to be part of an inaugural program, especially one with the reputation of Peabody-JHU. They do have some concerns, of course, since so little is unknown about the program (e.g., who is on full-time staff, what is the academic curriculum, performance opportunities, etc.). Good luck to your daughter and congrats on the multiple acceptances!!
