Music Scholarships

Studies have shown that students who complete music courses score higher on their SAT’s, have higher GPA’s and receive more academic honors than their counterparts. But once they graduate from high school, it’s not a test score but a love for music that drives them to continue their studies.

Those who aspire to be exceptional musicians are often faced with fierce competition, competition that makes many reconsider a future in the music business. Because a postsecondary education is costly—regardless of major—students are frequently forced to opt for better-paid, more secure fields, ones they know can support their college dues.

This is an unfortunate side effect of the rising college prices, but we’re determined to reverse the trend through providing deserving students with music scholarship opportunities. Scholarships.com is dedicated to helping students pursue a career based on their interests rather than their finances. When students complete our free college scholarship search, they can find information about numerous music scholarships, awards restricted to those planning to major in music. Information about more than 2.7 million scholarships and grants can be found at our site. And that’s just the beginning.

At Scholarships.com, students will have free access to our college search, a regularly updated education blog and detailed information about college scholarships, grants, fellowships and student loans. To supplement these resources, we have also created the Scholarships.com $13,000 "Fund Your Future" area of study scholarship, an award that can help users fund an education in their field of choice. When current and future music majors apply for the Scholarships.com "Fund Your Future" Art Scholarship, they may find themselves $1,000 closer to a degree in music.
