Scholarships

BLUR is dedicated to bringing as many talented young artists to our beautiful campus as possible, no matter the financial obstacles.  

However, funding is not unlimited, so we ask that you please indicate in your brief essay on the on-line application (click on the the "Apply Now" tab to begin) that you would like to be considered for a scholarship and why you want to attend BLUR.  Be persuasive!

In addition, please download the "Early Estimator" form by clicking here. Please fill out this form and return it by mail March 1st to:  

BLUR

202 Fletcher Hall

Sweet Briar, VA 24595

Note that you do not have to fill out sections "B" and "E" of the form.  This form will help us to determine the scholarship amount for which you are eligible.

All scholarship applications will be judged based on financial need AND artistic merit, so it is important that you send us your best work.

If you have additional questions regarding this process, do not hesitate to email us at blur@sbc.edu
