The Department of Music is proud to offer scholarships to music students of outstanding musical and academic ability. All students are eligible to apply for music scholarships which are awarded annually, including incoming first-year students, incoming transfer students and continuing students. Scholarships are awarded to incoming first-year students for a period of four years, and to transfer and continuing students for shorter periods. The Sister Aimee Rossi/James H. Kolar Amadeus Endowed Scholarship is a combination of the Sister Rossi Scholarship, which was established by Alan and Irene Lund in memory of USD's Sister Rossi and in appreciation of their daughter Victoria Lund, who flourished in the Department of Music, and the James H. Kolar Amadeus Fund, which was established by Professor Emeritus Henry Kolar in honor of his son, James H. Kolar. The purpose of the Sister Rossi/James H. Kolar Amadeus Scholarship is to promote sacred and classical music at USD. Applicants must be an incoming or continuing music major. Students who will audition on February 19, 2024 must submit their application and required materials on February 12, 2024; and those who will audition on April 6, 2024 must submit their application and required materials on March 30, 2024.
