With the support of dedicated music educators, we connect aspiring performers to top collegiate programs. Our platform opens doors to recruiters, scholarships, and performance opportunities—helping students turn their musical dreams into reality.

Together, we empower student performers to recognize, afford, and achieve their college goals.
At the heart of our work is the Accoladi platform—launched in 2018 to connect aspiring fine arts students with collegiate programs of all kinds—including community colleges, colleges, universities, schools of music, and conservatories—as well as scholarship opportunities. Each student builds a comprehensive profile, including contact info, teachers, repertoire, honors, and references. The highlight: a video performance showcase that allows students to present their talent in a memorable, compelling way.
To support their journey, we offer students a suite of tools designed to build confidence and clarity: mock entrance exams, curated solo repertoire suggestions, directories of required excerpts and musical terms, and expert-written articles that answer the questions families don’t even know to ask. These resources ensure students are not only seen—but ready to be seen.
Accoladi acts as a marketing agent, inviting college recruiters to explore these profiles, view performances, and connect directly with students, parents, and teachers through our secure messaging board.
We believe music is a divine gift—an expression of worship and a powerful force that unites people across cultures. As the universal language, music celebrates our shared humanity.
We honor music’s essential role in the cognitive and emotional growth of young people, shaping them into thoughtful, passionate adults. Music education is a vital discipline—one that must be taught, experienced, and passed on. We value educators at every level and are committed to nurturing the next generation of teachers.
We celebrate performers for the beauty, joy, and meaning they bring to the world. Their craft demands skill, passion, and mentorship—values we proudly uphold. We deeply respect scholastic and collegiate music educators and arts administrators. Through Accoladi, we support their work and the students they serve.
And most of all—we celebrate you, the Fine Arts Director. This journey is about your vision, your leadership, and your ability to open doors for thousands of students. You set the standard for excellence, empower your teachers, and ensure that the arts remain a vibrant, essential part of education. We’re here to give you the tools, data, and partnerships that help you amplify your impact across every campus you serve.
