Residence Program
The Residence Program at Cary Ballet Conservatory offers dancers a home away from home. Our wonderful, nearby facility is located in a friendly neighborhood within walking distance to the studio for classes. Under 24-hour care by a Residence Director, selected students have the opportunity to experience a memorable PTP boarding experience and make friendships with other dancers who share their passion for dance.
Housing is limited and available to selected students only, so we encourage early applications.
