Great!
@sharonp @CaMom13 NYU gives merit based scholarships for art and music without need. Always call to confirm this information, but my D received $11K as a VP student (no need) back in 2008 and the policy seems to be the same currently. https://www.nyu.edu/admissions/undergraduate-admissions/aid-and-costs/scholarships.html It is listed under school specific aid (Steinhardt)-- artistic scholarships.
