Discover Music Scholarships for Your College Journey

Are you passionate about music and looking for ways to support your college education? We've got great news for you! Your musical skills and experiences can actually help you earn scholarships for college. Yes, you read that right!

Colleges and universities offer fine arts scholarships to students who are willing to perform, even if they're not majoring in music. Believe it or not, there are thousands of fine arts scholarships out there, and we're here to help you find them. At Accoladi, we assist students in organizing and showcasing their musical achievements from 6th to 12th grades, making it easier for colleges to discover their talents and offer scholarships. These scholarships often involve joining college ensembles and using your musical abilities.

Did you know that colleges start searching for potential scholarship students as early as the 10th grade? Some even start tracking progress as early as the 8th grade! Even if you're not yet thinking about college, recruiters are actively seeking out future scholarship recipients. So, what are these recruiters looking for? They want students who:

  • Earn good grades
  • Participate in various ensembles and productions
  • Take private music lessons
  • Engage in summer enrichment experiences
  • Make it to All-State or regional ensembles
  • Follow through on commitments
  • Maintain a positive attitude

It's never too early to start considering how you'll finance your college dreams and ambitions. No matter where you are in the process, Accoladi is here to assist you. We can help you:

  • Understand the different types of scholarships available
  • Find and apply for these scholarships
  • Prepare for the requirements to obtain a scholarship(s)
  • Receive, affirm, and commit to the awarded scholarship funds

Researching, applying, auditioning, and securing music scholarships may differ from academic and leadership scholarships. But fear not, because Accoladi has a proven track record of guiding students through every phase of the process and helping them secure those much-needed funds. We're committed to supporting you on your musical journey.
