Can I be apart of a college dance team and still attend law school?
I am in my junior year of high school and I really enjoy dance. I would love to go into the entertainment industry, but I know it is not the most realistic pathway and I've always bean interested in law. So the high school I attend to now offers college course classes and as long as you are on track with your credits you should graduate with an associate degree. We are duel enrolled with a community college so we will be getting official degrees. So I would have around 2 years left of pre-law technically. With that being said I was planing on going to CU Boulder and finishing out my pre-law. They have a law school that is weirdly attach to the school but separately. So students will attend CU Boulder for pre-law and then take the LSAT and go to "Wolf Law";that is the name of the law school that's on the campus of CU Boulder. So they do have a connecting program of transforming over to the law school, so they work together. So one of the requirements for the dance team is to be enrolled in there school, but since I would be there for 2 years finishing up my bachelor degree and in a wired way still be apart of the school when I go into law, would I still be able to do 2 more years on the team.
