Candidates should demonstrate a consistent pattern of academic achievement such as consistent high grades on report cards and/or  90% or higher on standardized tests such as SSAT, ISEE, MCAS, or WISC. Alternatively, a student may take the Applewild Scholarship Assessment on campus at a mutually convenient time, please contact admissions to schedule. Students should also possess demonstrated behavioral patterns of curiosity, inquiry, and intellectual adventurousness supported by recommendations by a student’s current teachers, or by attending academic enrichment programs such as Johns Hopkins Center for Talented Youth, Explo, or Russian School of Math.

To qualify, a student should have invested themselves in studio art, instrumental/vocal music, or drama, and have a demonstrated pattern of passion and interest. Students applying for an Arts Scholarship should supply photos and/or recordings to demonstrate their level of performance and may have a teacher, director, or instructor submit a letter attesting to their commitment to art, music, or drama.

To qualify, a student must have demonstrated skill and interest in one of the sports offered by Applewild School. In anticipation of the completion of our new 50,000 square foot Athletic & Wellness Center, the School is offering scholarships for students participating in swim, squash, basketball, soccer, fencing, and lacrosse. A student’s coach may submit a letter documenting a student’s overall athletic performance and potential, and a family may submit video or photographs to be evaluated by the Scholarship Committee.
