Marshall and Dorothy Smith Music Scholarship
Music is one of the greatest joys in the world, providing the soundtracks to our lives and evolving with us.
Studying music can be incredibly fulfilling and rewarding, but it is difficult for many young people to access the education they need to achieve professional success. Students with limited financial resources often forego their creative dreams in order to secure a stable future, limiting the perspectives represented in artistic fields.
This scholarship seeks to honor the memories of Marshall and Dorothy Smith by supporting students who are passionate about music.
Any high school senior or undergraduate student pursuing a music degree may apply for this scholarship opportunity.
To apply, tell us about your background in music and what you hope to do after finishing your degree.
