Evaluation Criteria:

Scholarship recipients are selected on a competitive basis. Students and choral leaders of color are encouraged to apply for scholarships and will be specially considered as part of Chorus America’s ongoing commitment to equity and inclusion in the choral field. Applications will be evaluated based on the quality of the responses and potential for the scholarship to make a lasting impact in the applicant’s career and/or choral community. Applicants may apply for multiple scholarships, but will receive no more than one award.

All scholarship applications are due Monday, April 9, 2018 11:59 PM EST.
