<p>If I recall correctly, Violadad’s daughter got a full scholarship somewhere playing didgeridoo. Can’t remember the school… ;)</p>
<p>FWIW, my D got offered several thousand (5k? - can’t remember) at St. Olaf as a non-major violinist, and 10k at Furman for same. Neither was enough to tip the scales for us. We also heard, “We don’t need violinists” at a couple places, and “we don’t give music scholarships” at others. So your mileage may vary, depending on school.</p>
<p>I assume that you play horn. That is often a desired instrument, especially if you are willing to go to a school where the music program is still developing.</p>
