This scholarship will be granted to full-time undergraduate students entering the Faculty of Music who play keyboard or stringed instruments. First preference will be given to applicants who play the organ, followed by those who play the cello and finally by all other keyboard or stringed instruments. The successful candidates will demonstrate a high level of proficiency in performance during the audition process for entrance into the Faculty of Music. Candidates will be nominated by the audition committee to the Dean of the Faculty of Music. The scholarship is renewable in the consequent 3 years of study if the incumbent maintains full-time registration in the same academic program and meets all academic progression requirements. Because this scholarship is renewable, it may, or may not, be available to new students during any given academic year. Recipients of this scholarship are not eligible to receive the non-renewable scholarship offered through the support of the same endowment.
Renseignements additionnels
This is an endowed scholarship, which was established through a generous bequest from Rev. Erich Schultz (BA '51, B.D. '57). Rev. Schultz received a Bachelor of Arts degree in 1951 and a Bachelor of Divinity degree in 1957 from Waterloo College, as Laurier was then known.
He joined Waterloo Lutheran University as Librarian in 1960, serving until 1991, and was the Archivist of the Easter Synod of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Canada for 49 years. His interests ranged from theology to music and he was especially supportive of the library and the needs of students. Upon his death in 2010, he left several bequests to Laurier, including one to support student excellence in the Faculty of Music.
