The Iowa Lakes Foundation offers three
music scholarships: the Gaarde-Hinsch Scholarship, Music
Department Scholarship and the Tom Spalding Memorial Scholarship.
Gaarde-Hinsch Scholarships
Bertha and Delbert Hinsch of Estherville established the
Gaarde-Hinsch endowed scholarship for the benefit of student
musicians at Iowa Lakes Community College. Their great love of
music inspired the couple to establish this generous gift which
awards numerous music scholarships each year.
Deadline: April
1 Amount:
Varies
Music Department Scholarships
This award is provided to talented and promising young musicians
whose academic qualifications and demonstrated musical abilities
indicate that they could make a significant contribution to the
music program of the college. The amount of these awards is
determined by several factors including student ability, financial
need and specific needs within each ensemble. One of the two
requested references must be from your school music instructor or
private teacher.
Deadline: April
1 Amount:
Varies
Tom Spalding Memorial
Family and friends of Tom Spalding established this scholarship in
2008 after he passed away following a short illness. Spalding was
the Director of Records and Registration at Iowa Lakes Community
College from 1981 to his retirement in 2002. Following his
retirement, he continued his commitment to Iowa Lakes by
participating in the jazz band and teaching students to appreciate
music as much as he did. His love for music and students was an
incredible asset to the college, especially the Music
Department. Eligible candidates must audition and be accepted into
the Iowa Lakes Community College Jazz Band. Two recipients will be
selected annually and must use the award for tuition, books and/or
fees.
Deadline:
Amount: Two - $250
Music scholarship auditions are held
during the first week of each semester. Students interested in
auditioning at another time can also email
cayres@iowalakes.edu (for instrumental auditions) or
