Towson University offers undergraduate
(BM) and graduate (MM) degrees in composition. At the
undergraduate level, there is a

in the development of concert music, and composition with
jazz/commercial
emphasis.
Scholarships for composition majors,
ranging from a few hundred dollars
to full tuition for several years, are available to selected
undergraduate students. Additional information regarding scholarship
auditions is included in the department's application package.
