In Reply to: College searching; tuba scholarships? posted by Antonio on July 13, 1999 at 13:41:23:
I think you would find very few colleges or universities out there WITHOUT tuba scholarships. I opted for a very small Liberal Arts college with a small band and practically non-existant orchestra and managed to snag a tuba scholarship, I wasn't even a music major! In the case of the college I went to the tuba instructor was just excited to have a non-music major interested.
I've talked with a friend at church whose son is a Senior next year in high school and has already had some offers for small scholarships when he mentioned and interest in Tuba as a non-music major. You just have to ask!
Good luck!
