SCHOLARSHIPS

We understand that the question of how much financial aid California State University, Sacramento can award a particular student is an extremely important one. However, financial aid, whether merit and/or need based, cannot be offered until after a student has completed the application and audition process, and has been accepted. Note that our admissions decisions are made independently of financial aid decisions; applicants are not judged by their financial standing. Entrance auditions or fall juries serve as scholarship auditions for the following academic year.  Entrance audition must be completed by the February audition date to be considered for the following academic year. Auditions completed after the February audition date will not be considered for scholarship purposes.

Prospective and returning students must complete the FAFSA by the CSUS MUSIC priority filing date (February 1 of the preceding academic year) to be considered for Department of Music Scholarship Award.
