<p>Buy a book called "Creative Colleges." If you like modern, would add Connecticut College. For dance, Marymount Manhattan has a great program. Goucher, Skidmore, Indiana, Fordham, UMass Amherst, all have good dance programs. What kind of dance do you do? Sounds like you are not a hard-core ballet person. Makes a difference in your choices.</p>

<p>Wisconsin Madison. One of the top biology schools in the world. Oldest dance major in the US, and one of the best French depts in the US. You can go as far as you want in any of those areas there. Great college town location with plenty of visiting and local artists. Fantastic indoor tennis facility so you can play all winter.</p>

<p>compmom-i am a technician...(all my leaps, turns, jumps, etc. have been worked on my whole life.. they are incorporated into all my dances. i do ballet and pointe about 5 hours a week for my techinique but i'm mainly a stlylized techinician in jazz, conteporary, lyric, modern, etc. so i would need a program that does more than just ballet. although i do put in about 5 hours a week, that is only a small portion of my weekly dance classes. i am up for anything in college though. i hope this could help answer the question. thank you for the help.</p>
