    The purpose of JCSP and Online Composers Institute's scholarships is to encourage participation by helping composers through barriers and/or through competitions. In both cases, we work to ease the scholarship request process. Ask for help or questions at any point in the process. Email our Scholarship Facilitator, Pat Steege here. Once you have completed your registration in Step 1 (Registration), you will be personally contacted via email by our Registrar, Emily Berg. 

    Through barriers. All scholarships are gifts. They do not need to be repaid. JCSP is intentionally working to eliminate barriers that might exist on the basis of race, ethnicity, nationality, gender identity, sexual orientation, physical/medical/mental ability, religious identity, familial status, economic status or musical training or genre. These inclusion scholarships are possible with the generous support of the ASCAP Foundation and the BMI Foundation.

    Through competitions. With support of the seven state chapters of the North Central Region (Iowa, Illinois, Minnesota, Nebraska, North Dakota, South Dakota, and Wisconsin) and of the National Federation of Music Clubs, scholarships are awarded for composition competition winners. You can find links and deadlines for these state, regional and national competitions on each state listed above. Deadlines for these competitions frequently occur in the Autumn/Winter.

    Additionally, scholarships to our Summer Programs are available for Minnesota residents, age 14-18 through the Minnesota Office of Higher Education's Summer Academic Enrichment. These awards must be coordinated through Junior Composers Summer Programs, We strongly encourage you to Initiate this process as soon as possible by emailing Pat Steege.
