UNDERGRADUATE AWARDS
Each undergraduate applicant is considered for a merit-based scholarship at the time of audition. 

GRADUATE AWARDS
Students working toward a graduate degree or diploma will be considered automatically for Associate Instructorships (AI), Graduate Assistantships (GA), Graduate Scholarships, and Fellowships at the time of audition. A separate application is not necessary. All awards are competitive and based on the strength of the audition and academic record. Teaching experience is also considered for AI awards. AI and GA awards consist of tuition and stipend for a maximum of 18 credit hours of graduate courses per year. All awards are renewable on a yearly basis.
