The bigger agencies are very pro-education, they also look for models that have training in dance , piano etc ( I suppose they figure it makes a well rounded individual ).

They like the models to come out to NYC during Spring Break and summer etc. I have never heard of an agency that didn't enstill these kinds of practices. I had a 12 year model signed with Elite, they were very aware of her schedule ( and she ended up doing a lot of teen magazines and such), they just worked around her schedule.
