Music Scholarships

Covenant offers music scholarships, which are awarded based on a student's contribution to the music program. (You do not have to declare music as a major in order to compete for this scholarship.) Students with a major or minor in music receive higher awards.

Prospective students should complete the Undergraduate Application as well as fill out a Music Scholarship Application and Audition Form. Please make sure you submit these applications no less than ten days before the scheduled audition.

Early auditions are encouraged because of the competitive nature of awards. To be considered for a music scholarship, you must audition by the final visit day in the spring for full consideration.
