Scholarships

Dancers doing ballet

Snowy Range Summer Dance Festival is proud of our ability to offer numerous scholarships to students each year so they are able to attend the festival. Scholarships are very competitive and funding varies depending on the source of funding and the student application. Some scholarships are restricted to specific cities, regions or state while others are available without restrictions. For example: in most situations, scholarships are awarded for partial tuition.

Awards are based on the following criteria: 
1) Quality of performance (from audition or video)
2) Financial need
3) Students who have attended previous festivals.

In addition, consideration is given to student traveling extended distances.
