The KSU Dance Company auditions are held during the first week of classes in the fall and spring semesters. 

Students must wear black dance attire to the audition and bring footwear appropriate for ballet and jazz. Women who are interested in auditioning for ballet repertory should bring pointe shoes.

Students are not required to prepare a solo combination for the audition. The audition consists of learning combinations all together and performing in smaller groups of 3-5. Students are encouraged to arrive early to facilitate a personal warm-up and stretch.
