Latin Grammy Cultural Foundation Announces 2025 Warner Music Latina Scholarship

The Latin Grammy Cultural Foundation announces that Warner Music Latina will sponsor its 2025 Prodigy Scholarship, supporting students pursuing a bachelor’s degree at Berklee College of Music. The scholarship will cover tuition and room and board for the 2025 fall semester, as well as wrap-around services provided by the foundation. 

Warner Music Latina—a powerhouse in Latin music with a legacy of discovering and developing groundbreaking artists across genres—brings its industry-leading expertise and deep commitment to nurturing emerging talent to this partnership. It is the first time in the scholarship’s decade-long history that it will be sponsored by a record label.

“This partnership embodies one of our core values: to cultivate intellectual and artistic potential by removing barriers that often impede exceptional musicians from realizing their vision. Through strategic educational support, we're not just investing in individual careers but in the broader cultural landscape of musical innovation,” said Alejandro Duque, president of Warner Music Latin America. 

Roberto Andrade, managing director of Warner Music Latina, added: “At Warner Music Latina, we’re proud to support young talent through this scholarship. By empowering aspiring musicians, we’re investing in the voices that will shape tomorrow’s soundtrack. This is more than an opportunity—it’s a commitment to creativity, talent, and the future of music.” 

The Latin Grammy Cultural Foundation is now accepting applications for all 2025 scholarships until April 10, 2025 at 11:59 p.m. ET. Review the 2025 guidelines and apply. The application includes two audition videos, two letters of recommendation, two essays, and an acceptance letter from an accredited university. Materials can be submitted in English, Spanish, or Portuguese. 

To date, the Latin Grammy Cultural Foundation has awarded 427 scholarships, investing more than $10 million over the last decade.
