THE BMI FOUNDATION is now accepting online applications for its 2019 scholarship season, open to students attending colleges and universities nationwide. The Foundation will administer five distinct songwriting and composing scholarship competitions, judged by panelists of international musical acclaim. 

These annual programs include the BMI Future Jazz Master Scholarship, BMI Student Composer Awards, JOHN LENNON Scholarship, peermusic Latin Scholarship and the NASHVILLE Songwriting Scholarship. In addition, the Foundation administers two scholarship competitions outside the area of music creation: the BMI Founders Internship Program for broadcasting students, and the WOODY GUTHRIE Fellowship for scholars pursuing topics or themes related to the American folk music progenitor.

“This is an exceptional opportunity for new songwriters and composers to be recognized and supported for their work,” said BMI Foundation Pres.
