You’ve got talent, we’ve got scholarships.

Talent awards are competitively selected, may be renewable and typically can be added to any merit awards you have earned.

Music and Theatre

There are multiple scholarships—from music to acting—available to you through the Department of Music, which are available for both majors and non-majors. The amount varies depending on ability and the number of ensembles in which you participate.

Call the music department at 208.467.8413 or email lsrichardson@nnu.edu to schedule an audition time. If you are unable to perform in a live audition, you may submit a recording of yourself. Please email the recording or recording link to the email address above, or mail a DVD or CD to:
