Arts Scholarships
The College of Professional Studies offers several Artistic Achievement Awards to talented, incoming students (new and transferring). Artistic Achievement Awards and limited endowed scholarships are offered in renewable amounts ranging up to $7,500 per year and are in addition to academic merit awards. Awards are renewable for up to three additional years, and are available to students in Dance, Media, Music, Studio Art & Design, and Theatre.
How to Apply: In order to apply for an Artistic Achievement Award, you must first apply to PLU via Common App (for First Year students, including Running Start) or Transfer student application, and make sure to mark on your application your academic and/or co-curricular interests in the scholarship areas (studio art/design, communication/media, dance, music, theatre).
We recommend you submit your PLU application by February 1, 2025 so you have plenty of time to complete the Artistic Achievement Awards application by the February 11, 2025 deadline! On campus auditions and interviews dates are February 21-23, 2025.
Once your application to PLU is submitted, you’ll set up your PLU student applicant portal and should see the Artistic Achievement Awards application there. You’ll also receive an email inviting you to apply for an artistic achievement scholarship.
