Music Scholarships

Instrumental and choral scholarships are available for students who are:

• Enrolled in a full-time (12+ credit) music degree program;
• Enrolled in a part-time music degree program; or
• Not enrolled in a music degree program but who wish to participate in any of SCC's performing ensembles.

All scholarships are awarded on the basis of:

• Student audition; and
• Departmental need.

We are looking for potential, as well as product. To audition, students must prepare and present two contrasting musical pieces on your primary instrument; an accompanist will be provided by request only. Our auditions are held in a low-pressure, supportive atmosphere.
