"This program gives dancers the opportunity to absorb a multitude of dance styles that are essential to becoming a dancer in this day and age. Being from Syracuse and a dancer myself, I find it wonderfully encouraging to have a program of this nature in my hometown."

- Evelyn Kocak, professional dancer with Pennsylvania Ballet,
SU Summer Dance Intensive participant in 2007 and 2008.

Auditions

An audition is required for acceptance into the Summer Dance Intensive. See the 2012 audition schedule and dates below.

In addition, dancers must submit an online application through Slideroom, which is an electronic application hosted through SU's College of Visual and Performing Arts, before attending their audition. The online application will serve as both an RSVP for the audition site of your choice, as well as the formal application to the program.

If you are unable to attend an audition, we accept video submissions. Information for video submission is also provided through Slideroom. To submit your audition, please visit: https://suvpa.slideroom.com/.
