Music Auditions
Northwest University is pleased to offer Music Scholarships to talented musicians (instrumental and vocal) for participation in a musical ensemble during enrollment. Amounts vary by instrument and ensemble at the discretion of Music Department faculty and are awarded for a maximum of eight semesters.
Music Scholarships are generally determined by live audition with Music Department faculty. Due to evolving COVID-19 circumstances, in-person auditions are subject to change. Out-of-state students who are unable to travel to audition may be allowed to audition by video on a case-by-case basis.
Please review the Music Scholarship Audition Info and Requirements.
