Tuition Remission Award Program
The 2020 Tuition Remission application deadline has been extended to June 1st. After June 1st, we will email all applicants with further audition information.
Summer Music Clinic registrants who are completing their junior year at a Wisconsin high school, are permanent legal residents of Wisconsin, and attending the Summer Music Clinic in 2020 are eligible to audition for the Tuition Remission Award Program. This program recognizes exceptional musical talent by awarding 10 students a tuition-free undergraduate college education at UW-Madison or UW-Milwaukee. Students may audition in voice or on a brass, woodwind, percussion, or string instrument. (Note: Piano and guitar are not included in this award at this time.) The preliminary audition round will take place June 28, 2020, and the final round is on July 1, 2020.
Please note that the SMC 2020 Tuition Remission Auditions will still happen this summer. We are working to partner with the UW–Madison Mead Witter School of Music and others to create a quality virtual audition system for all. Continue to prepare materials as planned. We will be in touch with applicants to provide more information in the upcoming weeks.
