Due to the generosity of many individuals and charitable foundations the Preparatory awards nearly $150,000 in general fund scholarships on an annual basis. The scholarship program is dedicated to provide need-based support to as many families as possible.
Note: An award in a previous year does not guarantee an award this year or may result in a lesser award. A limited pool of resources, based on donor directed funds, will be available for merit-based support and will be limited to our audition-based programs.
Scholarships are not available for the 2023 Summer Session.
The 2023-2024 academic year scholarship online application process opened on May 1st, with a priority deadline of June 15th.
