Joffrey-THE UNIVERSITY OF AKRON Partnership

Dancers can receive the exceptional training that the Joffrey Ballet School is known for and at the same time work towards a college degree. Students would enroll in the Joffrey Ballet School Trainee Program for dance training and simultaneously at The University of Akron, for academic studies. This is an amazing opportunity for any dancer. A college degree opens up so many doors and gives dancers an advantage not only in their dance career, but after that career is done.
