Scholarship
awards from the School of Music are based on the quality of performance
demonstrated in a scholarship audition adjudicated by School of Music
faculty. Financial need and prior academic achievement are not considerations
in the awarding of scholarships from the School of Music. Students who
do not intend to major or minor in music may be considered for scholarship
awards from the School of Music. Scholarship awards are renewable on
an annual basis and generally range from $500 per year through full
tuition.
Scholarships are administered through the Music Scholarship Committee.
Requests for renewal of music scholarships will be distributed to students
by applied teachers and ensemble conductors and must be returned to
the committee prior to the end of Spring semester. All recipients of
music scholarships are evaluated for renewal after the conclusion of
the Spring semester each year.
The following
criteria will be used in the annual renewal evaluation of scholarship
recipients:
1. Full-time
student status (12 credit hours per semester).
2. Major in music (if required
by original award letter).
3. Cumulative GPA of 2.5 or
higher.
4. Enrollment in appropriate
applied music class (lessons) earning a final grade of "B"
or higher
in both major semesters (minimum of six semesters for non-music majors).
5. Enrollment in appropriate
major ensemble, earning a grade of "B" or higher in both semesters.
6. Other specific area requirements
(piano, composition, etc.)
Scholarships will be renewed, renewed with one semester of probation,
or rescinded on the basis of the annual evaluation. Renewal at a different
monetary level than the original award is possible.
