Summer Dance - Theater Intensive

July 6 - July 13, 2008

Housing for Dance

Supervised Residential Plan for High School Students

Cost: included in program fee

Because of its intense and rigorous nature, you are required to live on campus during this program. Unfortunately, if you cannot live in the residence halls, you cannot be admitted. If you are accepted, but subsequently are unable to participate in all sessions of the program, you will be subject to dismissal. We trust that you will recognize the benefits of this one-of-a-kind program.

By living together, you will:

Share a double-occupancy room with another student in your program
Have the opportunity to form strong social bonds with your classmates and counselors
Spend more time working on your projects or rehearsing your final performance
Eliminate safety and time concerns inherent in an urban commute
Receive full supervision by an exceptional staff of UCLA students and full-time staff members
Have breakfast and dinner each day in the UCLA dining halls, sites nationally recognized for their excellent cuisine. You must, however, purchase your lunch each day at any of the inexpensive campus eating establishments.
Participate in planned social activities on selected evenings
Become better acquainted with UCLA
