Scholarship Opportunities
Peaks to Plains Suzuki Institute is proud to offer a limited number of scholarships to student and teacher training participants in support of their tuition costs. Various businesses as well as individual donors have contributed to make these scholarships possible. Scholarships for students and teachers will be awarded primarily on the basis of financial need; additionally, musical efforts, reliability, commitment, and teacher recommendation will also be considered. ALL recipients MUST be available to serve volunteer hours, as determined by the director, to receive the awarded scholarship. A lack of participation in service hours may affect future awards.
