WHAT ARE THE FACULTY LOOKING FOR WHEN THEY CHOOSE SCHOLARSHIP WINNERS?
Each faculty member has a different reason for choosing scholarship winners whether it is technique, style, personality, ability to execute their choreography, etc. 

WHY ARE SOME DANCERS RECOGNIZED IN CLASS AND NOT GIVEN A SCHOLARSHIP?
During class the faculty like to recognize dancers for the hard work, effort, ability, etc.  Sometimes dancers are called out because the faculty want to see them do the choreography again, or have a chance to dance with other dancers.  They want to push them and help them grow.  By doing this they are able to finalize which dancers they would like to write down before they turn that list in.

WHAT IS THE PROCESS OF BECOMING A PROTÉGÉ?
The faculty have different categories for scholarships and dancers must be written down specifically for Protégé in order to receive the award.  The faculty have different reasons for writing dancers down in this category.  Dancers with the most “Protégé” votes by the most faculty receive the scholarship. 

WHAT IS THE ROLE OF A PROTÉGÉ?
Protégés are invited to attend any PULSE Regional city with free tuition for one calendar year.  Throughout the weekend they are to be an assistant to the faculty and help the staff during check in, showcase and scholarships. 
 
WHAT ARE THE RULES OF WINNING PROTÉGÉ MORE THAN ONCE?
Dancers whose Protégé scholarship has expired are not eligible to win in the same city and level as they won the previous year.  In order for those dancers to win Protégé again, they must either change levels or win in another city. 
*NEW as of the 2012-2013 Regional tour! Creative Directors, Brian Friedman and Wade Robson, have recently made an exception to the rule.  Dancers may win Protégé in the same city and level as the previous year if they are written down by every faculty member present specifically for Protégé. 

HOW DO I BECOME AN ELITE PROTÉGÉ?

All dancers that have received the Protégé scholarship during our regional tour are eligible to become an Elite Protégé.  The selection process takes place at our finale event in New York City each summer.  After a week of classes, an interview and an audition the new Elite Protégés are announced at the Final Night Gala.
