You might want to look on the US dance forum: dancers invisionezone.com
I would contact the institution and ask them the difference and the entry requirements. University dance degrees in the UK vary. Some offer ballet whilst others concentrate on contemporary. In the UK most tend to be BA degrees- bachelor of arts. The Fine Arts one would suggest you may study other aligned disciplines with dance as the major but the institute should confirm. Check the academics too- is there a dissertation involved? Do I get assessed performing? Some UK courses have pure dissertations of 10000 words at degree level but other dance courses split this into a dance choreographed by you and a smaller essay in which you analyse the dance.
Good luck.
Thanks. I didn't mean to disturb a UK forum.

A few of you asked a few things about me and here are the answers:
I want to learn to dance because ballet has been an obsession of mine all my life and never got around to learning it. I don't expect to become a professional dancer but would enjoy working in the field possibly as a teacher.
And I am located in Virginia in the United States. There's a college near me that offers a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Dance and also a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Dance. Does anyone know the difference between those two degrees?

I'm 28 years old and have just started to learn ballet. I have a few questions.
Is it totally unrealistic to expect to someday get a degree in dance if I haven't danced since I was a child?
Can weight lifting contradict ballet?
What exercises are good for new dancers to do?
What would be a good diet for a ballet dancer?
New to the ballet world and have some questions.

Would the just the plain bachelor of arts make sense to get if I just wanted to teach ballet and not become a professional dancer?
