Resident Program
Weekend Activities


While weekends offer much-needed rest from the “intensity” of Summer and Collegiate Intensive, they also offer an opportunity to explore Cincinnati with new friends. As such, Cincinnati Ballet’s Summer Resident Program offers several weekend activities and trips to explore your summer home. Weekend excursions are optional, but encouraged, as they offer a break from the rigors of classes and the chance to explore the rich cultural landscape of the region.

Past activities have included trips to Kings Island Amusement Park, city tours, Reds baseball games, Cincinnati Opera performances and more.

Weekend activity registration will be offered to Resident Program students later in the spring.

Resident Program FAQs


Summer and Collegiate Intensive students are housed in one of Northern Kentucky University’s suite-style residence halls. The hall is staffed with a Resident Housing Supervisor and Resident Advisors who plan activities for students and are available to help support students during their stay in Cincinnati. The hall is situated in a safe, semi-private area of NKU’s campus in Highland Heights, KY.

Northern Kentucky University has been honored as one of the safest campuses and college towns in America.

Housing is a fifteen-minute drive from Cincinnati Ballet’s Margaret and Michael Valentine Center for Dance for Summer Intensive students. For Collegiate Intensive students, housing is a twenty-minute drive from the University of Cincinnati’s College-Conservatory of Music (CCM).

Summer Intensive students are transported by private school bus each day between the residence hall and Cincinnati Ballet. Collegiate Intensive students are transported by van each day between the residence hall and University of Cincinnati’s College-Conservatory of Music (CCM).

Students live in four-person suites featuring double occupancy bedrooms, a common area, and a full bathroom. The spaces are fully furnished with each student having an extra-long twin-sized bed, a desk, a chair, dressers and a shared mini-fridge for their personal needs. Free wireless internet is also available in each suite.

The Resident Program Leadership Team, including our Resident Housing Supervisor and multiple Resident Advisors, is always on site when students are present. Resident students who are 18+ during their program will have allowances to leave campus during select evening and weekend hours but are expected to follow program guidelines and expectations.

The Resident Program includes three meals each weekday (breakfast, lunch and dinner) and two meals on Saturdays and Sundays (brunch and dinner). Breakfast, brunch and dinner feature cafeteria-style dining, giving students a lot of options! Each week, students receive packed lunches which they pick up each weekday morning to take with them to their respective programs. The dining hall is located just across from the residence hall which makes mealtime easy! The dining staff is also well experienced in supporting the specific needs of those students with allergies and dietary restrictions.

Group events off campus typically occur each weekend and, in the past, have included trips to Kings Island Amusement Park, city tours, Reds baseball games, Cincinnati Opera performances and more. Students and families should keep in mind these activities are optional but encouraged and are subject to additional fees. The Resident Leadership Team also plans weekly group activities in the residence hall to foster community within the building. Downtime and rest are also important during off hours as the training schedule is quite demanding.

Students have access to free laundry facilities, free wireless internet and community lounges on each floor. The campus also features basketball and volleyball courts as well as plentiful greenspace.

The only items not covered by tuition and housing costs are weekend activities, apparel and merchandise, and any additional food/snacks students may desire to purchase.

Resident students should arrive at the university the Sunday before their session begins between the hours of 3:00 PM to 5:00 PM. Resident students enrolled in Session 1 will move out on Friday, July 5, from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM. Resident students enrolled in Session 2 or the full six-week program may move out on Friday, July 26, from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM or Saturday, July 27, from 9:00 AM to 10:00 AM. Due to the number of staff involved in student move in and move out and the availability of university staff to support key card activation and dorm security, it is important students arrive only within these time frames. Early or late arrivals cannot be accommodated.
