Department Scholarships

Incoming and transfer students who plan to participate in music ensembles and continue their study through applied music lessons are eligible to audition for music scholarships. Awards will be given in the areas of voice, instrument, and piano.

The Scholarship Competition will be held Saturday, Feb. 16, 2008.

Music Audition Requirements:

• Prepare to perform three pieces in contrasting style (i.e. Baroque, Classical, Romantic, Impressionistic, or 20th Century). You will choose one work to perform for your audition. The faculty will then choose at least one other of the three pieces to hear.
• Be ready to sight-read or sight-sing a portion of a work preselected by the faculty.
• Be prepared to demonstrate your technical abilities.

Remember: You must contact admissions to register to participate in the Scholarship Competition!

Selection is based on performance and merit. Award amounts will vary between $1,000 and $2,000.

In order to renew a music scholarship, recipients must enroll in a major music ensemble and take applied lessons each semester. Piano scholarship recipients will be required to accompany as assigned.
