[@matthewdonahue4015]

Also the amount of times y’all were “running a little late” is so funny to me lol

[@aloftylife4175]

Preston Simon aw yay congrats!!

[@quincyvincent2762]

[@Iriswildgem]

Omg I feel the girl who had to dance from 10-9. Legit my life too as a dance major lmao.

[@itssnai4201]

I think it's cool how you have so much freetime between certain classes.

[@tegan2307]

It’s nice to see a life of a Uncsa student because I’m in the prep program for uncsa and I know their very selective the freshmen high school class was super smalllll this year

[@nydiaclifton2]

I love this video so much and I also miss the campus! I did a summer intensive there last year!! Hope you guys are having a great sophomore year!!

[@aloftylife4175]

[@elenagimenez7658]

Matthew Donahue thank you!! my toast is stellar i must say

[@JenniferBrown-hm4sx]

Adorable.

[@ebonitrudeau]

Lovely video 🖤 Are you guys living on campus? I’m thinking about going to UNCSA for contemporary dance! I’m a musical theatre girl as well so I’m looking for a school where I can grow and be versatile with that! Do you guys recommend going there? I was thinking about going for Drama but I’m a dancer first so I don’t want to not dance if that makes sense 😂

[@aloftylife4175]

Hi! Yes, we do live in on-campus apartments and highly recommend UNCSA! I think either a dance or drama major would be good. I am a contemporary major and absolutely love it and I feel like the program prepares you for a variety of fields. The drama students take quite a few dance classes too so if you wanted more musical theatre training (singing and acting and such) I would suggest applying for that major :)

[@ebonitrudeau]

Thank you so much!!! I look forward to seeing more of your videos! 🖤

[@redheadlightningluver]

What editing app do you use? Ps, you’re like really pretty

[@anahglbrt5665]

Is this the high school program or the college program?

[@aloftylife4175]

College Program!

[@maya-kl9cp]

I really want to go to UNCSA for Music but I don't think I'll get in lol

[@madisonanne8332]

i am thinking about auditioning for their summer ballet intensive!! any tips?

[@gaby-fi3vi]

Hello! Does this prepare you to be a dance teacher or can you expect a professional dance career?

[@aloftylife4175]

Stella we train a lot in dance performance and the majority of alumni go on to have professional dance careers as performers but we also take pedagogy and choreography classes to learn how to teach and create pieces :)

[@gaby-fi3vi]

a lofty life Thank you so much!!

[@heileyo.5678]

Can you major in music and minor in dance? And do you need to have a lot of experience to go to this college

[@aloftylife4175]

we actually can't have minors here because it is such an intensive schedule! I would say you need quite a bit of experience, it is considered a conservatory so the classes are pretty small.

[@iyadesamero4200]

are they strict with accepting specific body types? and do they give out merit scholarships?

[@aloftylife4175]

Iya Desamero acceptance is definitely based on ability rather than body type and there are merit scholarships!!

[@kenmakozume2228]

what if your a dancer but your unexperienced, like taking class for the first time? Can someone still apply???

[@julesmichelle1441]

Do you guys have any tips for applying to uncsa? I’ve been looking into there dance program for a bit now and it seems amazing! ❤️

[@aloftylife4175]

Jules Michelle embrace everything that makes you unique because they love individuality!! and in the artist statement don’t be afraid to be too personal, they want to know about you! hope you get to audition, it’s a great environment and i wouldn’t stress about it too much :)

[@serenasestili9143]

The uncsa accept italian exchange students?? (17 years)

[@ashabatchelor3746]

I am 10 and I think I will go here or julliard any tips? Btw I am a small youtuber!
