<p>Have D auditioning there in a couple of weeks, how would you rate their dance department, average, above average, strong, elite? How difficult is it to get in?</p>

<p>I have heard that it is very good and that it is difficult to get in. I think in general that Michigan is difficult to get in if you are from out of state. I would put it in the strong category but if it fits your dd then its elite!:slight_smile: My dd has looked at alot of elite programs and for one reason or another most did fit what she wanted. You just have to know what your dd wants and look for those program. Good Luck!</p>

<p>It’s well regarded for modern. As for ballet, I don’t think they even offer pointe.</p>

<p>They offer pointe. It’s just not an emphasis.</p>

<p>My d auditioned there and was accepted with some scholarship $$ a few years ago. She loved the faculty (did a summer intensive there as well) and she knew if she went there she would have become the very best dancer she could be.</p>

<p>She chose another route, ultimately, but I know she would have loved dance at U of M.</p>
