AMTA is offering scholarships for professionals and students to assist in attending the 2015 national conference in Kansas City November 12-15. You have one more week to complete your applications- submissions must be received by the national office by 6 pm EST on July 17. This is a great opportunity to expand your skills and knowledge and to network with music therapists and students from around the world.

 

The scholarships are:

 

Conference Scholar and AMTA Past Presidents’ Conference Scholar

 

Conference Scholar awards are designed to help support AMTA members cover the cost of attending the AMTA annual conference. Conference Scholar monies are donated by AMTA, while Past Presidents’ Conference Scholar monies are thanks to generous donations by former presidents of national music therapy organizations. Conference Scholar awardees are chosen from the same pool of applicants, so if you apply for the conference scholar program, your application will be considered for both categories (i.e., you do not need to submit two applications).

The AMTA Conference scholar will receive:  $500 cash for conference expenses at the upcoming AMTA National Conference, free conference registration, and free participation in CMTE courses and Institutes.

Award: Up to five (5) scholars will be selected.

Requirements: The application narrative should be a maximum of one (1) page. Statement of need and potential professional development should be addressed within your narrative. (Your narrative should be submitted for blind review)

Application Deadline: All entries for the 2015 conference must be received by 6:00 pm EST July 17, 2015 without exception.
