The musical environment at Widener University is designed to suit the needs of the students in our program. Many students have made music an important part of their lives through years of hard work and personal commitment. Your musical growth need not end with high school graduation simply because you have elected to major in another career area.
Widener's instrumental ensembles rehearse weekly throughout the year. Our professional recording facilities allow students to assess progress. Performance opportunities include football games, recitals, and concerts. CD recordings of recent performances are available.
Music Scholarships
Freshman can apply for music scholarships of $2,000, which are awarded yearly. The scholarship is renewable throughout the four-year course of study at Widener. The Music program is designed to allow development of musical ability through performance and private study while majoring in another field.
