Scholarship Fund  
This fund provides tuition for ASPVA students who qualify for financial aid. Gifts of any
amount can be designated for the Scholarship Fund, and your generosity will have an
enormous impact on the lives of artistically talented children.

    Named Scholarships
    With a gift of $1,000 or more, a current partial scholarship can be established in
    the name of the donor, or in honor or memory of someone special, like a family
    member, a beloved teacher or a favorite performing artist.

    You can also establish a named current full-tuition scholarship, which will pay
    one student’s complete tuition for one academic year.

    These scholarships are awarded annually, for as long as the donor makes the
    resources available. Named scholarships may be restricted to students within a
    particular discipline: dance, drama or music. However, fewer restrictions on a
    donation will allow ASPVA to respond to student needs as they arise each year.

    Endowed Scholarships
    You may also choose to create a permanent, endowed scholarship.

    Donors of named current or endowed scholarship awards receive several
    benefits, including a report about the scholarship recipient, invitations to
    performances at ASPVA in which that student is featured,  a listing of the
    scholarship on ASPVA publications, as well as his/her own name listed in ASPVA
    performance programs.

    All scholarship recipients are chosen by an ASPVA committee of administrators
    and faculty members on the basis of need, as evaluated by the School and
    Student Service for Financial Aid program to determine financial needs of
    student’s and their family, as well as the students’ artistic merit and academic
    performance. Donors may not select recipients. Contributions to ASPVA for
    scholarships are eligible for tax exemption to the extent allowed by law.
The Austin School for the Performing and Visual Arts (ASPVA) admits students of any race,
color, national and ethnic origin to all the rights, privileges, programs, and activities generally
accorded or made available to students at the school.  It does not discriminate on the basis of
race, color, national and ethnic origin in administration of its educational policies, admissions
policies, scholarship and loan programs, and athletic and other school-administered programs.
