Scholarships guide: a way to fund your dream.

To help out, DANCE MAGAZINE compiled a list of dance scholarships. Some cover tuition For tuition fees in the United Kingdom, see .

Tuition means instruction, teaching or a fee charged for educational instruction especially at a formal institution of learning or by a private tutor usually in the form of one-to-one tuition.
 and training at a specific college or university; others can be used for whatever the dancer chooses. Our list is extensive--but it's still just a start. If you don't find your dream program here, contact the school, festival, or organization directly to find out what help it might offer. There are also other sources to dig into Verb 1. dig into - examine physically with or as if with a probe; "probe an anthill"
