The program is awarding two types of scholarships for first-year students in the MFA Arts Leadership Program. You may apply for one award or both.
- The MFA Leadership Scholar Award provides full tuition to two applicants for the first year of the program. The selected applicants must demonstrate a financial need, a capacity to be exemplary leaders in the field and the potential to complete the Arts Leadership Program within the two-year period of study.
- The MFA Financial Award provides $5,000 each to six applicants who have demonstrated great interest and experience in the arts and a potential to complete the Arts Leadership Program within the two-year period of study. These awards are disbursed over the first four quarters of the program.
Criteria for Eligibility: Students who are applying to the MFA Arts Leadership Program that begins in the Fall Quarter 2015 and culminates upon graduation in June 2017 are eligible for these funds. US citizens must have filed a 2015-16 FAFSA. International students are eligible for these awards (no FAFSA required -- only the Declaration of finances form as part of the application packet is required).
