Scholarship Process
Upon completing your application, you will be prompted to pay the application fee of $60. This fee will give you access to the Online Classical Campus school for the instrument scholarship for which you are applying. You will have full access to the required repertoire (and more) in the form of video lessons. Prior to final submission, you will be able to submit Video Exchange questions and get video feedback from your teacher/judge. Final submission must adhere to the deadline on this overview and must be one continuous video containing all the required repertoire. You may continue to use the online school until the subscription expires, at which point you may resubscribe at your discretion.
Judging
The final submissions will include multiple excerpts that will be transmitted to the teacher/judge through the ArtistWorks Video Exchange process. They will weigh each excerpt equally. No one excerpt will be more important for judging than another. Decisions will be based on each teacher’s subjective evaluation of the content of each submission. All decisions are final.
