A few music scholarship pages (U.S.) to check out

Tweet

Love music? You can find music scholarships at many colleges across the nation.

Check a school near you. It is possible you can audition with voice or instrument to get a scholarship. Just ask someone in the music department.

Secondly, apply for a Music Scholarship at your choice of school.

The FAFSA application (see here for a great new tips video about that) is your first avenue. They have scholarships and grants that they will tell you about when you fill it out if you qualify.

Here are just a few links to get your started on that dream music scholarship.

Financial Aid at Juilliard (Dance - Drama - Music)

Interlochen Center for the Arts  Programs (grades 6-12)

The Oberlin Conservatory of Music is very prestigious. Check out their scholarship page too.

Check out the Wikipedia listing of colleges and university schools of music in the United States. You can click on your state to find out more.

What is your favorite music college? Just go to the site, and check their Scholarships and Financial Aid pages. And good luck!

Don't fall for these scholarship scams!

BEWARE OF SCHOLARSHIP SCAMS...

Yes, nefarious nogoodnicks are out there, preying on scholarship seekers.

The FinAid site warns: never give money to get a scholarship. It's a sure sign of a scam.

Here is the full article:

Scholarship Scams

The popular Scholarships.com site also warns of processing fees and small awards on their Scholarship Scams Page - advice from Scholarships.com. Another red flag is an email telling you that you have won an award when you didn't apply for it.

The Federal Trade Commission also has a good page to read so you don't get scammed. You can also report any suspicious scholarship sites or activities by scrolling down to their report links.

On the whole, I find that most scholarship sites are on the level, and won't scam you. But it pays to be careful.

Good luck in your scholarship search!
