Scholarships for the 2008 Summer Institute
Florence Tyson Scholarships are available for the 2008 Summer Institute for music therapy students who are currently enrolled in a graduate music therapy program.

- Level II on June 9-14, 2008
- Level I Practicum - Fall 2008 Semester
- Level II Practicum - Fall 2008 Semester
Applicants are evaluated upon their potential and/or excellence in the theory and clinical practice of psychiatric music therapy. Scholarship may be granted for partial or full tuition for one course. All materials must be received by May 1, 2008. Candidates must be enrolled by May 1, 2008.
