Scholarships
At audition, all dancers are considered for scholarship. Limón believes deeply in community and makes every effort to provide access to high quality dance training at Limón. Annually, the Foundation provides more than $100,000 worth of free dance training and education.
Merit- and need-based tuition scholarships are available for eligible dancers who we ask to be excellent leaders and ambassadors of the Foundation and legacy, via an unwavering work ethic, contribution to a healthy community culture and the highest standard of integrity, attendance and artistry.
In order to provide the highest caliber of training and also to remain affordable to dancers, we have decreased our tuition this year.
Tuition each term is $4,500.
If you register for LimónPro before July 18, 2025, tuition is $3,500.
If you register for LimónLaunch before December 31, 2025, tuition is $3,500.
The reduced tuition early registration deadline is meant to provide all dancers the access to train at a highly reduced rate. Scholarship is only available to dancers who register AFTER the deadlines above.
If you are unable to afford tuition, you are encouraged to prepare financially to join us for the next upcoming term.

The Limón Institute partners with the New York Language Center so international dancers can train with Limón in the mornings and learn English in the evenings. ESL learners obtain a student visa via New York Language Center.
If your command of the English language is fair to advanced, we partner with IIE to sponsor your J-1 visa.
