Scholarships

Hampton University offers music scholarships to qualified students. Music scholarships are not designed to pay all of the expenditures for attending Hampton University, but to help defray some of those expenditures. First-time scholarship awards are based primarily on the performance ability of the student. Subsequent awards are based on the student's musical growth, commitment to the field of music, and demonstrated performance ability.

Qualifying for a Music Scholarship

Be admitted to Hampton University by this admission application form, complete this Music Scholarship Application form, and audition. Students submitting video tapes for their audition may receive a conditional award based on their tape. However, they will be required to audition upon arrival on campus in August to receive the actual award.
