Scholarships
There are different types of scholarships available to both music majors
and non-majors. These include fall service awards of $1,000 for participation
in the Tiger Marching Band as well as a limited number of scholarships which
cover up to full tuition (in-state and out-of-state). For Louisiana residents,
the Louisiana Tuition Opportunity Program (TOPS) is available to qualified
students. It is one of the most innovative and progressive student assistance
programs in the nation. For out-of-state students, we offer very competitive
LSU School of Music tuition waivers for music majors. You can read more about our scholarships below.
