<p>Recently got accepted as a Bio major at University of Arizona. I want to do premed as a biology major. So happy with this choice and I love Biology as a career path. However I don't want to stop dancing. I don't really want to join their Pom line because in my opinion it's more cheerleading than dancing and I'm just not into that. I like ballet or modern and jazz and all that. That's why I thought of being a dance minor because I don't know any other way to incorporate it into my schedule? I haven't made my schedule or discussed it with anyone btw. I'm confused if I need to audition to be a dance minor or if it's even a thing to be a bio major with a minor in dance. Is it taking on too many credits? Is there another way to take classes without dedicating it to an entire minor. I've taken AP courses my whole high school career so I know what a workload is but I'm worries with all the pre med it might be too much or..
Anyways thanks for reading and please help </p>
<p>This sounds like something specific to take up with the university advising. Since you have been accepted, I’m sure the university will be more than happy to connect you with an advisor. Contact admissions or look up the academic advisors online. They’re the ones who will be able to tell you if this is feasible at that school.</p>
<p>University of Arizona offers dance classes as Gen Ed courses for non majors so you could incorporate then into your schedule as you had time. They require an audition to determine which level you would be put in. They have a dance minor which requires 21 hours of study. There is no audition for it but it is limited by the number of students. If you feel the dance minor is too time consuming you can still take dance classes. If you get credit for your AP classes it may free up some hours for you. I’d definitely talk to both the biology and dance departments at UA.</p>
<p>Keep dancing in some capacity- either as a minor or maybe at a local studio. It will keep your head clear for all those pre med classes. And a dance career is short- most retire by their mid 30s- about the time you will be finishing a residency program.</p>
<p>You always find time for the things you really love. </p>
