The impact of a scholarship at the School of Music and Dance is felt in a student’s daily life. A reduction in the financial stress of college is a gift of time, allowing our students to focus on their academics and embrace the many performance opportunities we have to offer. Our goal is to increase the number of scholarships available in order to offer scholarship packages to at least 50 percent of our students each year.

School of Music and Dance Stories

“There are many talented, intelligent, and dedicated dancers, musicians, and future academics applying to our school. But many times, we find ourselves losing these prospective students to schools that are better resourced and have the ability to give out more and larger scholarships. We want them to choose us.”
