Free Scholarships to Music Industry & Recording Arts school, Harris Institute.
I just thought I would give a heads up to those that may be interested. 91.5 the beat is giving away 6 scholarships to the Harris Institute for the Arts in Toronto.
The station is based out of kw, and I THINK you may have to be from kw to qualify, but don't quote me on that.
I actually went to Harris on one of these scholarships. It covers your full tuition which is about 13k. I really enjoyed my time there a lot and I would highly recommend it to anyone who is looking to fast track their training in the sound engineering field. Especially when you don't have to pay for it, lol! Its a great school with a heavy emphasis in music. They teach a good amount of theory. They also do a recording artist management program for those interested in the business side of things.
some of rules they state in the word document contradict each other, for example:
quote:
5. AWARD SELECTION. Awards shall be selected as follows: a. A representative from 915 The BEAT and one from Harris Institute two weeks after the entry deadline will judge all entries received and will select SIX based on – Spelling & Grammar, Overall Presentation and Commitment and Passion to a recording career. Each Entrant shall be eligible to win only one Prize. No mathematical skill-testing question is required to be answered in order to receive an Award.
quote:
13. DECLARATION AND RELEASE OF GRAND PRIZE WINNER Before being awarded the Grand Prize the Grand Prize winner (and their legal guardian) must: a) Correctly answer, unaided, a time-limited skill-testing mathematical question; and
Does this make any sense to anybody?
