<p>Hi, I sent in my application for the UF Gator Bands (both marching and concert), and I think I have a good chance at being not last in the section, possibly in the top half. I was just wondeing if a lot of band people get small scholarships or some kind of "signing bonus" thing if they do well and come back next year.</p>
<p>So yeah, now that I have made a simple question into a short (and droning) paragraph, do band people get scholarships?</p>
<p>Band Scholarships are awarded by the School of Music. I would recommend contacting the school for more details (contact info in the below link). </p>
<p>GOOD LUCK!!</p>
<p>[School</a> of Music](<a href=“http://www.arts.ufl.edu/music/resources/uscholarships.asp]School”>http://www.arts.ufl.edu/music/resources/uscholarships.asp)</p>
<p>“Band Scholarships are given each year for performance in the Symphonic Band or the Wind Ensemble. Eligible students are required to audition. An ensemble grade of B or better is required for the scholarship to be renewed each semester. Students receiving band scholarships are required to perform at all scheduled events and rehearsals throughout the year. Interested students should apply directly to the Director of Bands.”</p>
<p>“Mark Stoughton Band Scholarship: Awarded each year to one band student, based on scholarship, performance, and service to the band. Recipients are selected by the Band faculty. The amount of the award is between $200 and $300, variable each year, and is given in addition to any scholarship the student may already hold.”</p>
