Bucks County Community College Has a New Dance Partner

 Without missing a step, Bucks County Community College dance majors can now transfer to DeSales University in nearby Center Valley, Pa., to complete their bachelor's degree. The collaboration creates expanded opportunities for dance students to continue their artistic and academic journeys with a seamless pathway from Bucks to DeSales. What’s more, Bucks students with a 2.75 GPA or above and enrolled as a full-time student will receive a scholarship equal to 50% of DeSales’ tuition rate. There are two pathways for dance students to enter DeSales through Bucks, according to Tia Kern, the coordinator of the College’s dance program. “One of the great benefits of this agreement is that high school seniors can audition at DeSales, gain acceptance, and then choose to begin their studies at Bucks,” said Kern. “By doing so, they can essentially bypass the audition process when transferring as college juniors, while also saving a significant portion of tuition before completing their bachelor’s degree.” Students can also audition to enter DeSales as college juniors at Bucks through the advising structure designed within the agreement, added Kern. The College will celebrate its new dance partner with a special performance at 12:30 p.m. Tuesday, March 31, in the Zlock Performing Arts Center. The program will feature performances by Bucks dancers alongside visiting dancers from DeSales, highlighting the talent, creativity, and shared commitment to excellence that defines this growing partnership. “We invite students, faculty, and the community to come together in support of the arts and this exciting new chapter for dance education,” said Kern. The performance, which is free and open to the public, takes place on the campus located at 275 Swamp Rd., Newtown, Pa., where there is ample free parking. For a campus map and directions, visit the Newtown Campus web page. The Associate of Arts degree in dance is one of ten programs of study offered by the School of Arts and Communication. Bucks County Community College is an accredited institutional member of both the National Association of Schools of Art and Design and the National Association of Schools of Music.
