SCHOOL OF THEATRE ARTS SCHOLARSHIPS

Grand Rapids Civic Theatre School of Theatre Arts, through the support of generous community members and foundations, is pleased to offer need-based scholarships for classes and summer camps.

Qualified applicants may receive up to: 

  • 75% tuition scholarship for fall, winter or spring term classes
  • 50% tuition scholarship for Performance Block classes
  • 50% tuition scholarship for summer camps.

Scholarships are limited to one class per student, per term and cannot be added retroactively. Due to the limited amount of scholarship funds available to us, there is a finite number of scholarships that we are able to accept within a given year. Be sure to get your application in early for the 2025/26 school year!

Scholarship Applications: Opens August 5

[APPLICATION LINKS OPEN AUGUST 5 2025]

 

Scholarship Due Dates: 

Fall Term: September 19th
Winter Term: December 26th
Spring Term: March 27th

Tuition balance must be paid in full no later than one week before classes begin.
We will begin accepting applications for the 2025-26 school year on August 5 2025.

Registrations are processed on a first-come, first served basis. Failure to meet the application and payment deadlines could result in registrations being cancelled. Please contact the Education Office if you have circumstances that prevent you from being able to pay in full by the due date.

Attendance Policy

Attendance is crucial in theatre class!  When a student is absent, it not only impacts the student’s learning, it also impacts their classmates who are relying on them in scenes and activities. If a student misses more than one class, we consider that an “incomplete” class. If a student with a scholarship misses more than one class, their scholarship status for the remaining school year will be rescinded and the administrative fee will not be refunded. Readmission into the scholarship program for the following school year will be made on a case-by-case basis.
