Do you love music? Are you African-American or Latino? Here on the ASCAP page, there are scholarships for all ages and ethnicities. Most of the scholarships on this page are for younger students, but a few are also available for older students.
Two of these are: (from the site)
"THE ASCAP FOUNDATION IRVING BURGIE SCHOLARSHIP
The ASCAP Foundation Irving Burgie Scholarship was established to support an aspiring African-American songwriter from New York City. This annual scholarship is awarded alternately between the Berklee College of Music and the University of Southern California. It is funded by a gift from ASCAP member, performer, folklorist and community activist, Irving Burgie in celebration of the 50th anniversary of his song 'Day-O.'"
