Thespian Scholarships at State Conference
Each year seniors who are inducted Thespians may audition to receive a share of the $4000 in scholarships awarded by EdTA and Indiana Thespians.
Thespian College Auditions
Each year the Indiana Thespians hosts a college audition process for students wishing to study theatre after high school. Junior and Senior Thespians may participate in the process. Each college or university theatre program that participates in the process awards a minimum of 2, $500 scholarships, for students to study at their school. Most schools award much more than that!
Annually, this program awards nearly $500,000 in scholarships to prospective students!
