parents of an able and ambitious student should not be deterred by
financial considerations from making application for a scholarship.
Those who wish to apply for a scholarship are asked to fill out

request. On the basis of the applicant's need, academic ability,
character, and general promise the School will grant scholarship
aid. However, it should be noted that the larger grants are awarded
through straight academic competition.

tuition fee paid for each boy is confidential and has no effect on
his position or privileges in the School.
