Worth knowing
The deadline is September 15 after you finish grade 12, which lands after most students have moved. If the music award goes unclaimed in a year, the fund instead pays two $500 Scandinavian Studies scholarships the following year, for study of a Scandinavian language.
About this scholarship
A music scholarship paid $500 in October and $500 in February on continued registration. You have to be accepted into a post-secondary program in Alberta with music as a major area of study, and to have spent at least a year at a Black Gold high school including grade twelve. The application is a letter of recommendation from a music teacher or principal plus a short account of your musical background and why you are continuing in music.
