HOFSTRA UNIVERSITY

THE B.S in Education/Dance Education AN 8-SEMESTER STUDY GRID    

This is simply an example of what 8 semesters might look like for incoming First-Year students. If you declare your major later, or are a Transfer Student, your grid will look considerably different.

Your choices may vary. Some DNCE courses fulfill more than one requirement such as a Cross Cultural or Interdisciplinary Studies Core Distribution, opening up more space.

Up to 6 credits of Core Distribution credits may be taken during Study Abroad.

Students are required to meet with a Dance Department advisor at least once every semester.

For more information and to meet your faculty, visit our Department website at https://www.hofstra.edu/dance Some Dance courses (AP/IB/Transfer) taken prior to Hofstra can count toward the major.

Non-Dance courses taken prior to your first year can count toward general education requirements or elective credits, whether taken at Hofstra or transferred in.
