I'm a baton twirler and I'm wondering if there are any college scholarships out there for students like me. I'd love to continue twirling in college and could use some financial support.
Absolutely, there are scholarships available for baton twirlers. Some colleges have actual twirling scholarships, often through their marching band or the athletic department, so that's an angle you might want to consider.
For instance, the University of Iowa offers scholarships to members of its Hawkeye Marching Band, including twirlers. Many other schools have similar scholarship programs in place. It would be worth reaching out to the schools you're interested in, specifically their marching band director or athletic department, to see if they offer any scholarships for baton twirlers.
Lastly, you may also want to look at more general scholarships for athletes or performers and see if your experience as a baton twirler would make you a good fit.
Best of luck with your scholarship search!
