Audition Type

It is most advantageous to meet you in person for your audition. It provides a personal experience where you will have the opportunity to take a class with the dance faculty, chat and have lunch with current Goucher dancers in our dining hall and tour our vibrant campus. We understand that it might not be possible for everyone to make it to campus, but strongly suggest that students from adjacent states come to the in-person audition.

In-Person Auditions will be held on Sunday, February 21, 2027.

Dancewave Auditionees are not required to re-audition, but you are invited to attend if you wish.

Please Note: In order to be eligible to audition, you must first be admitted to Goucher College. If you are not admitted to Goucher, your Dance Scholarship Application will be withdrawn and your audition cancelled. Apply Now.
