The Texas Music Educators Association (TMEA) High School Senior Scholarship is a program that awards scholarships to high school seniors in Texas who have demonstrated exceptional musical talent and academic excellence. The scholarships are awarded annually and aim to support students pursuing higher education in music.
The scholarship application process typically opens in October and closes in December. Students are required to submit an online application, transcripts, letters of recommendation, and an audition recording showcasing their musical ability. The audition recording must be a solo performance of a piece of music that showcases the student’s talent.
Scholarship recipients are selected based on their musical ability, academic achievements, leadership skills, and financial need. The scholarship amount varies each year, but typically ranges from $500 to $2,500.
