Key Dates:
August 1: Application Opens
November 1: Early Action Deadline
Mid-January: Admission and Merit Aid Notification

Note: Transfer students follow a rolling admission process. The Early Action timeline does not apply to them.
BFA in Dance Application
The BFA in Dance application will also open August 1.
Important Notes:
- You must submit the Main Campus application first to gain access to the Arizona Dance application.
- This application may be referred to as the Fine Arts Application BFA Dance or CFA Application Form in different parts of the system.
- Registration for in-person audition dates is completed during the dance application process, under the Audition Details section.
