 Music
General music scholarships are available to students pursuing an academic major in music based upon their auditions for the School of the Arts. Music majors can also be considered for band scholarships in addition to music major scholarships; students who would play an instrument in Marching Band other than their primary performance area can arrange a time to audition for a band scholarship during the School of the Arts audition and interview weekends or schedule a band scholarship audition at another time.
Band scholarships are available to students of all academic majors who will participate in the Marching Band and either the Wind Ensemble or Symphonic Band. Interested students are encouraged to contact Director of Bands Dr. Jim Smisek (jjsmisek@samford.edu or 205-726-2485) to arrange an audition. More information can be obtained on the Samford Bands website: http://band.samford.edu.
