General Information
"My summer at Chautauqua
was a dream come true. Not only was the training excellent and
the community beautiful, but being asked to join NCDT 2 at the
end of the program made this a summer to remember."
Justin Hogan, Apprentice
Dancer, Mercyhurst College, new member of NCDT 2
Admission
Chautauqua welcomes applications
from talented students of any
race, color, national or ethnic origin or religious background.
Admission is by application and audition for full-term students.
Be sure to indicate your preference as to audition site. Admission
decisions and scholarship awards are made before March 31, and
no decision will be released until the applicant’s file
is complete
and the non-refundable application fee of $25 is paid.
Scholarships
Students may apply for scholarships,
which are awarded on the basis of student’s talent, years
of study and financial need. In 2007, the Chautauqua Institution
awarded direct scholarship aid to 60% of the students in the
School of Dance.
Housing
Chautauqua provides residence
hall lodging for approximately 280 full-time students enrolled
in the art, music, dance and theater schools on a first-come,
first-served basis. Early application is
recommended. Dormitories will be open to students as early as
Friday, June 20.
Deposits
Two deposits are required within
seven days of admission into one of Chautauqua’s programs.
Upon admission to the program, a place-holder or tuition deposit
of $500 guarantees the student’s
scholarship award, if any, and a place in the program. A security
deposit of $100 is required of all students, including those
on full scholarships. This deposit guarantees a student’s
housing and is used to defray the cost of damage to dormitories
or loss or damage of other property.
Meal Plans
All students who live in Chautauqua's
residence halls must enroll in our full meal plan which consists
of three meals/day for the entire length of the program. There
are no cooking facilities available in the dorms.
