Fee includes instruction and room and board. The Summer Arts Institute will award a few merit-based scholarships to extremely talented students. These scholarships will be based solely on the merit of the audition and will not be based on need in any way. Consideration for these scholarships is automatic provided your completed application, application fee, and audition meet the published deadlines. We strongly encourage all applicants to the Summer Arts Institute to explore sources of financial assistance in their local community.
Some organizations hold special auditions for summer camp scholarships.
Please note that you must adhere to the Summer Arts Institute deadlines for applications and auditions regardless of your local scholarship consideration. Failure to comply with these deadlines makes it impossible for us to guarantee a space for you even though you may eventually be awarded a scholarship. You should notify the Summer Arts Institute Office of your award after you apply. Winning a local scholarship does not allow you to waive our audition requirements. The Summer Arts Institute Band and Orchestra participants will embrace the pursuit of excellence in rehearsals.
