To get into college, all I have to do is graduate with four years of English,3 years of Math,3 years of Science,3 years of Social Studies,2 years of Foreign Language,1 year of Fine Arts,1 year of P.E., and 5 classes of

Electives.To enter college, I need to make a 1,000 on the SAT test, or a 21 or above

on the ACT test.

Years For Degree Needed

To be a Dancer I need a Bachelor of Art Degree.This is 4 years of college (or 6 if you need).I am going to need 120 credits to graduate.That isn’t going to be easy.

How To Get CreditsGetting credits isn’t very hard. It’s just a lot of classes. That’s all. I need to take 10 classes. They are English(6 credit hrs), history(6 credit hrs), Government(6 credit hrs), Visual and Performing Arts(3 credit hrs), Humanities(3 credit hrs), Social Behavioral Sciences(3 credit hrs), Mathematics(6 credit hrs), Multicultural Womens Studies(3 credit hrs), Science(6 credit hrs), Computer Literacy Competency(3 credit hrs), Dance(90 semester credit hrs). It seems like a lot. Plus my own choice of class.

Cost of College Per Year It costs a lot of money for TWU(Texas Womens University).I can’t belive it but it costs $65,997.Can you belive that?It costs that for everything altogether.
