Boarding School Scholarship

Overview

Need-based boarding school scholarships are financial awards that help bridge the gap between what a school costs and what a family can reasonably afford. Unlike merit awards, these programs prioritize economic need and access, and they are typically funded by endowed funds supported by alumni or foundations that work with schools to expand access. These awards are recalculated each year based on changes in a family’s income, household size, or assets to ensure support remains fair and equitable.
