Theatre Pre-College Scholarship at Marist College
Summer Pre-College Program
Scholarship Opportunity
This is one of those opportunities I want to pass along to you because it’s a good one and I’m not getting paid to promote anything.
As you may know, my daughter Morgan attended the Summer Pre-College program last year at Marist College. The course was such a positive experience for Morgan, our family has maintained close communication with Marist ever since. I was recently notified that they still have a couple spots left in their Theatre Pre-College course, starting on June 26th so, thanks to our relationship, Marist has given me the opportunity to promote a handful of half tuition scholarship to listeners of MomTalk Radio!
This course offers high school students the opportunity to “test-drive” a college theatre course while living on campus for two weeks. Upon successful completion of the Summer Theatre Institute, each student earns three transferrable college credits for the Marist course ENG 150 Introduction to Theatre. The program also includes seeing live theatre, both locally and with a trip to Broadway with a backstage tour (last summer’s Theatre Institute toured “The Book of Mormon” and had a private talk-back with the cast of “Jersey Boys”.) Best of all, they keep their program small so that the student’s experience is an intimate and rewarding one.
I really don’t want these scholarships to go to waste so please feel free to pass it along to a mom who might have a child who is interested.
