Programs

The Sharon Disney Lund School of Dance offers an undergraduate program leading to the Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA) degree and a graduate program leading to the Master of Fine Arts (MFA) degree. Prospective students are invited to apply to one of the two programs:

BFA Program in Dance
MFA Program in Dance

Coursework for both programs is drawn from a range of more than 30 classes offered by the School each semester. The BFA candidates are required to take liberal arts courses in the School of Critical Studies. Dance students may also take advantage of numerous elective courses offered by the CalArts Schools of Art, Critical Studies, Film/Video, Music and Theater. In addition, qualified graduate-level applicants to the School may apply to be considered for a supplemental concentration in Integrated Media (IM)--a course of study for interdisciplinary work with digital media. The Fall 2007 "Schedule of Classes" has been attached to give the prospective student a look at the weekly schedule of classes, times and days. To graduate, students must fulfill all program and course requirements and pass regular faculty reviews of their artistic and academic progress.
