Theatre Scholarship Opportunity!
In addition to the general UNK scholarships, freshman or transfer students planning to major in Theatre at UNK are eligible to apply for one of the Program's First-Year Theatre Scholarships.  First-Year Scholarships are $1000 non-renewable,tuition waiver scholarships awarded to up to five incoming Theatre majors each year. 

To apply for a First-Year Theatre Scholarship, please submit an online application, or print, complete, and return the Scholarship Application Form.  Once your application has been evaluated, you will be contacted to schedule a in-person audition/interview.  Ideally, scholarship interviews will be complete and award recipients will be notified of their awards by the end of March.

Though the initial application deadline is February 1 each year, applications will be accepted until all scholarship funding has been distributed.
