We interrupt this vacation blog for big college news! We received a phone call from Carthage College tonight with the final news Drew has been so patiently waiting for ... the results of the competition for the Fine Arts/Music Dept scholarship dollars!
He auditioned for the Music Dept when we were in Kenosha for the Lincoln competition in Feb and he felt that it went very, very well. The head of vocal music was in the audition and told Drew he really hoped that he would be coming to Carthage to sing.
The Carthage School of Fine Arts is offering Drew $10,000 a year in scholarship dollars, renewable for all 4 years for a total of $40,000 to come be part of the Carthage Music Dept! That on top of the other monies we already knew about for his ACT score ($8000 x4), being a Lincoln finalist ($1000 x4) and the Alumni Association dollars ($1500 x4) brings his annual scholarship total to $20,500 ... so $82,000 for the four years!
We are so very proud of him. WOO HOO DREW! :-)
