Fall 2008 Tuition Assistance deadline August 21 , 2008 @ 5 pm
Seeing Stars! is a special tuition assistance program for deserving students, who otherwise could not afford to study at the
Flint School of Performing Arts. The program currently awards tuition assistance monies to nearly 350 music, dance and preschool students
each year. What makes this program unusual is the personal contact between the students and donors. Those who contribute at the Super
Star level ($500 annually) support a student for one year of study at the FSPA. They are invited, by the student they sponsor, to
attend recitals and other performances, becoming a part of that student's experience at the FSPA.
Scholarships are also available.
