Scholarships & Sponsors

Talent scouting allows students the chance to be seen by world renowned artists, company and professional school directors. This exposure is key in helping these young artists pursue a career in dance. UBC’s objective is to be a part in participants continuing their education, gaining professional training experiences, and ultimately having the opportunity to perform in a company if that is their dream.

 

As innovators, UBC was the first ballet competition to hold online auditions bridging the gap between talented college-level students and recruitment opportunities. This online platform allowed colleges, university, and professional school directors to observe a class during the competition and award scholarships to dancers that met their criteria for acceptance into their programs. 

 

Every season Universal Ballet Competition awards over $3,000,000 in summer intensive scholarships to incredibly talented dancers. Dancers have the opportunity to be awarded scholarships and acceptances for summer intensives, workshops, college programs, short-stays, year round programs, second companies and more. Our world-renowned jury panel look for a wide variety of dancers through classes and performances. 

 

UBCs mission with each class and competition is ultimately the growth of each dancer as an individual. UBC is more than a competition, it is a chance for dancers to reach their goals, and we look forward to having you be part of it.
