Scholarships & Financial Aid

Conservatory of Dance Arts offers financial aid and scholarships. A critical part of our mission is ensuring that cost is not the determining factor for learning ballet. Money should never be the determining factor when a child expresses interest in dancing. We believe in bringing the arts to all students, regardless of their economic situation. More than 75% of our students have received financial assistance with their ballet training. Students receiving financial aid or a scholarship must maintain minimum enrollment at Conservatory of Dance Arts. Failure to demonstrate commitment to the program may result in the financial aid offer or scholarship being rescinded.

We offer the following types of financial assistance:

Financial Aid

Financial aid up to 40% of tuition is available to all students. We believe in making every effort to keep the cost of entry to high quality dance training as low as possible. If you have need of financial aid, please contact the Ballet Master so that we can work with you to to make training possible for you. Due to the limited nature of funds, please do not request more financial aid than you require.

Family Discounts

Immediate family members of existing students and Conservatory of Dance Arts Staff automatically receive 25% off of their tuition. This is calculated from the lowest tuition amount.

Scholarships

Scholarships are available to full-time and Summer Intensive students. Scholarships are typically awarded through an application process. Scholarships are valid for the term assigned only; a new application is required for each school year or Summer Intensive session. Denial of a scholarship is not a negative indication of a student’s ability.

Scholarships are available for the following circumstances.

• Financial Need

• Artistic merit

• As part of a community event or outreach initiative
