Omaha Conservatory of Music is grateful to a number of generous donors who have provided funding for Financial Aid assistance.
Consistent attendance at lessons, classes or ensembles is required for students receiving financial aid. The Conservatory reserves the right to discharge students who miss more than 5 lessons per Academic Year. Should a medical issue arise, a doctor's note may be provided for consideration.
The Conservatory also reserves the right to suspend or discontinue instruction of any student who is delinquent in fulfilling his/her financial obligations not covered by financial aid at any time during the semester.
Financial aid is awarded on a rolling basis as funds are available, and applications are reviewed throughout the year. Applications will be evaluated and students notified of results when process is completed.

Currently enrolled students can apply for financial aid via their Parentsweb account on the Family Portal of FACTS.
