Musical Bridges Scholarship Program
At Musical Bridges, we are dedicated to making music therapy accessible to everyone who needs it, regardless of their financial situation. Our scholarships offer partial financial support, requiring each recipient to contribute in a way that’s manageable for them. Here’s what you need to know:
Duration and Types of Scholarships:
Short-term scholarships are available for up to 3 months for those facing unexpected bills or recent job loss.
Long-term scholarships cover services for up to 12 months, with the possibility of renewal, subject to re-evaluation.
Who does not qualify? Scholarship opportunities are not available for those reimbursing music therapy through Katie Beckett waivers, IEA grants, or private insurance.
Who can apply? If you require financial assistance, we encourage you to apply. Each scholarship award is determined on a case-by-case basis after an in-person interview and financial review, reflecting the generous contributions of our community and the availability of donated funds.

Include a copy of your tax return from the previous year, which should be mailed to scholarships@musicalbridges.com.
An interview will be scheduled to discuss your application and determine the appropriate scholarship tier.
