　　 1. Scholarship

The full scholarship varies with the tuition and miscellaneous fees stipulated by the college, and the number is very limited.

　　 Music study abroad Scholarships are not the only form of grants. Generally, every school or college will set up many types of scholarships. Generally, students can apply for more than two types of scholarships at the same time. Generally speaking, the probability of obtaining a scholarship is lower than that of obtaining a grant.

　　 2. Fellowship

Fellowship is a kind of financial aid with the highest amount but the most fierce competition. Generally, if you get a grant from a college, you will get a full award. In addition to general tuition and miscellaneous fees, accommodation fees, insurance fees, and book fees, the grant will also provide a certain amount of money to students as their personal consumption expenses.

The competition for financial aid is particularly fierce in the application process. Generally, in addition to a higher TOEFL score, there is also a better GPA, recommendation letter and personal statement. The preparation of these materials should be skillful and distinctive, so as to successfully get the full grant.

　　 3. Tuition Waiver

In some American colleges, there is a tuition free graduate scholarship for American music schools. Some colleges regard it as a kind of scholarship, while others list it separately. In fact, Tuition Wavier does not belong to the category of scholarship, but belongs to economic aid, which is the type of aid that Chinese students, especially music applicants, receive most.

It is also one of the most widely distributed and easily applied non service grants. However, since tuition is only a part of the total cost, it is also necessary to apply for other forms of scholarships if you want to obtain sufficient funds. If students can get full tuition reduction, it is usually called "half prize" by universities. If they get RA/TA again, it is "full prize".

　　 4. Research assistant and teaching assistant RA/TA

RA/TA is a kind of service scholarship, and the person who receives this kind of fund will undertake 12-20 hours of auxiliary teaching or research work every week. This kind of financial aid is only available to master or doctoral applicants. For Chinese students who apply for American graduate level or above, the chances of obtaining scholarships are much higher than that of undergraduate students or undergraduate transfer students. Most of them win full prizes by receiving one of these two kinds of service salaries.
