Merit Scholarships for Music Majors (reported by School)

I will update this as I get more information from members of this board. Please remember that these are reported and anonymous so they may not be 100% accurate. (these are music and not academic scholarships)

--Music College Merit Scholarship Ranges
(depends on many factors: not only talent but how much a program needs your particular instrument and/or genre).

Berklee - $44k tuition. Merit Scholarships usually range from $10k to $20k. Some $30k (mainly from the Summer Program) and the rare full tuition and Presidential Award - tuition, room/board).

The New School - $46k tuition. Merit Scholarships range from $10k to $40k with most between $10k and $20k.

NEC -$48k tuition. Merit scholarships range anywhere from $5k to $34k.

Frost - $50k tuition. Offers anywhere from zero to full tuition. Most generous music school for scholarship. 5 Stamps Scholarships every year (full ride).

USC - $55k tuition. USC Thornton doesn’t give out much music merit, but I've seen them give $10,000 a year. Zero in Pop Music. Small potatoes in Jazz. Most money offered is for tippy top academics.

Belmont - academic scholarships only for 2 years.

Oberlin - meets financial need!

University of Michigan - ??

SFCM - ??
