The Wilberforce Scholarship

Thanks to a new grant, The Wilberforce School is proud to announce a merit-based scholarship, to be given to an outstanding new* Middle School student (grade 5 through 8). The scholarship covers 90% of tuition. Wilberforce Scholars who maintain a GPA of 3.5 and exemplary conduct will have the scholarship renewed each year until graduation from eighth grade.

This is a merit-based, competitive scholarship. Candidates must complete the standard admissions application process and a Wilberforce Scholar’s application (comprised of one essay and a character reference).  Finalists will be called in for interviews by the scholarship committee.


*Please note:  The donors who fund this scholarship have stipulated that it is to be given to new applicants only and that currently enrolled students are not eligible for the scholarship. Their intent is that this scholarship will expand the number of outstanding scholars at the school.
