音乐 奖学金

Each year the School of 音乐 awards over $275,000 in scholarships to deserving students who have been accepted for admission to Indiana State University.

All music scholarships are performance based. If you are interested in being considered for a music performance scholarship, you must apply to ISU and audition by February 28, 2023.

Audition Process

An entering music major is expected to have developed music reading skills and to have achieved considerable performing skill on an instrument or in voice. These skills are demonstrated to the music faculty through an audition. Those students who wish to pursue a degree in musical performance are expected to display greater proficiency and aptitude than those who are entering other degree programs.

The Audition Determines:
