Advising Notes:

1. An audition is required for all concentrations; see the departmental Web site (link below) for information.
2. Because of the sequencing of coursework, students who transfer with an appropriate associate's degree should expect to spend approximately three years at JMU to complete this major, unless they have a solid collection of transfer credits in theatre or dance.
3. Theatre and Dance majors earn a B.A. degree. The B.A. requires intermediate proficiency in a foreign language and a philosophy course. Students are strongly encouraged to begin their foreign language at the community college.
