GRAMMY Camp is a 7-day non-residential summer music industry program for high school students interested in having a career in music. Students from across the country apply for one of the eight offered career tracks. GRAMMY Camp faculty of music professionals as well as guest industry professionals provide valuable insight to give the campers the best chance at achieving success in their chosen career.

Financial assistance is available for students who need it, and the form to apply can be found as part of the GRAMMY Camp application.

PLEASE NOTE: During GRAMMY Camp, Campers must reside with a parent/guardian or with an adult approved by the GRAMMY Museum.

Some possible questions to address can include why you want to come to GRAMMY Camp; how you will benefit if accepted; your long-term career goal(s) in the music industry; and some influences in the Career Track you are applying for. Be concise. Be creative. Be yourself!
