@actingbee - the talent scholarships at WSU are much more mysterious than the merit awards, which are posted in plan sight on the WSU admissions tuition/aid page (same goes for the merit awards at the other schools I mentioned). I am pretty sure that the talent awards are based on what they see in the audition room and how badly they want your “type”. I don’t know how much previous awards play into the equation. There are additional talent awards that a student can get in subsequent years - like a Tom Hanks Scholarship - based on their performance/attitude/work ethic/talent while in the program. Scholarships can be stacked up to the total cost of attending WSU - including books/fees. Since my S has a merit-based full ride, he is not eligible to receive additional scholarships, so we haven’t paid much attention to how they work
