Vancouver Island’s music department has turned out some of the most successful music makers of any schools on the West Coast. Located in Nanaimo, this small city has an incredibly vibrant music scene. Study jazz or classical music with any of Vancouver Island’s instructor-musician faculty members and you will leave the university with the musical grounding that will stay with you on whatever musical path you choose to follow into the future.
Vancouver Island University, in conjunction with MusicFest Canada, will provide a tuition scholarship in the amount of $1,000 to an outstanding performer participating at the national festival.
