There is no set number of candidates that will make the team. The judges will select anywhere from one to sixteen dancers depending on the ability level of the pool of candidates. The judges will be qualified dance instructors who have no affiliation with Sam Houston State University. They will not be given any information about the individual dancer prior or during the try-out. Their selection will be based completely on their critique of the candidate's performances.
Guests are welcome while the try-out material is being taught.
New students must be admitted to Sam Houston State University for the fall 2001 semester in order to try-out. Students cannot be admitted on any type of probation. Sam Houston State University students must have a 2.2 cumulative grade point average and be in good standing with the university.
