Undergraduate Financial Aid

USC SCHOLARSHIPS
USC Music scholarships are available for undergraduate students, and about 2/3 of USC Music majors receive music scholarships. All who audition on or before the last official audition date of each audition cycle are automatically reviewed for all available Music scholarships; no additional paperwork is required. Out-of-state students who receive School of Music scholarships are eligible for a sizable reduction in out-of-state tuition and fees, as long as they meet minimum academic requirements.

Click here for Audition Information.

USC also offers a large amount of academic scholarships to bright students who have demonstrated academic success. Many USC academic scholarships for out-of-state students include an in-state tuition rate incentive to help bring exceptional students to USC. For more information regarding those scholarships and information on how to apply, please visit: http://www.sc.edu/financialaid/academic.html.

The Carolina Alumni Association also offers several scholarships to incoming students. For more information on these, including application materials, please visit http://www.mycarolina or call 803-777-4111. There are some scholarships available only to sons and daughters of USC alumni (who are CAA members).

OTHER SOURCES OF FUNDING AT USC
Please consult the USC Financial Aid office's website, which has extensive information on ways to cover to the cost of attending USC: http://www.sc.edu/financialaid.
