Each year, through the support of generous foundations and individuals, Colorado Ballet is pleased to offer tuition reduction opportunities to students who wish to study ballet in our Academy. The number and amount of each award is determined by the number of applicants and the amount of funds available. Tuition reduction is not guaranteed, and the amount awarded may not be the same as awards made in previous years.

Participants agree to the guidelines set forth below:

• A Tuition Reduction Scholarship Award (“Award”) does not include performance, showcase, or registration fees, private lessons, master classes, or any expense outside of academy tuition.
• An Award applies to academy tuition only, offered for the 2023-2024 academy session and is not applicable to any summer program or extracurricular program (Nutcracker, YAGP, DBG, etc.).
• Awards are granted on a year-to-year basis only. If you have received financial assistance in years past, you must apply and be reconsidered annually.
• An Award with Colorado Ballet is made without consideration of race, nation of origin, or gender.
• The yearly amount of any Award may be based on artistic merit and/or financial need.
• Artistic merit is determined at the sole discretion of the Academy Director, Academy Principal, and Instructors.
• Colorado Ballet Academy may reduce or withdraw awards at any point during the year for students who do not adhere to the policies outlined in the Waiver and agreed to in the Commitment Contract.
• Application must be accompanied by a 2022 tax return for each parent/legal guardian. Proof of the total income for the household(s) of the student must be submitted. The Tuition Reduction Committee reserves the right to request additional documentation/information from you to determine your need. Applications will not be considered without these documents.
