Students also may qualify for additional need-based aid, in which case the dance scholarship becomes part of the student\u2019s financial aid package.<\/p>\n<p>An award of $5,000 per year is open to dance majors and non-dance majors. This renewable merit-based award is potentially a $20,000 4-year scholarship. Recipients are required to participate in one of the dance department\u2019s performing companies (or a comparable performance-based project) and a movement intensive dance class each year.<\/p>\n<p>A student applying for a dance scholarship must also submit an application for admission to the college. Fine Arts Scholarship applications are due on the same timeline as your St. Olaf application for admission. See the <a href=\"https:\/\/wp.stolaf.edu\/dance\/program-timeline\/\">scholarship program timeline<\/a> for more information.
