I don't really have any additional advice from above. But you might want to suggest to her that her options are not A or B. They could be both. I know a young man who applied for both options as a h.s. senior, entry into a ballet company & university. He was accepted at Harvard in their dance program, but he deferred for a year and worked in a ballet company. He went to university for 4 years, I have no idea what he majored in but he continued to dance. And now in his mid 20's dances for a professional dance company.

I am not really in a position to judge his talent but keep in mind it is easier for men to get an entry into elite ballet because there is simply a smaller pool of male dancers than females at this level. And he had double legacy at Harvard so this might of influence his decision to go there, I have no idea how it's dance program ranks.
