Excellence in Character Scholarship

All applicants who complete the application process by the application deadline will be considered for an Excellence in Character Scholarship. Recipients will be notified of their selection with their admission decision in February (grade 9) or March (grades 6-8, 10-12).

Excellence in Character Scholarships are awarded to new students who are well-rounded, capable students who demonstrate exceptional character through their application and the admission process; they are not awarded for athletic or extracurricular talent.

Excellence in Character Scholarships are renewable each year throughout the level in which the recipient enrolls (middle or upper school). In order to renew the scholarship, recipients must maintain satisfactory academic progress, demonstrate positive school citizenship and actively contribute to the Whitfield School community.

The Excellence in Character Scholarship program is separate from Whitfield School’s need-based financial aid program. If a student is awarded both a Character Scholarship and need-based financial aid, the total amount of assistance to the student will not exceed the full amount of tuition.
