These scholarships are merit based academic scholarships awarded to students that distinguish themselves through academic achievement, leadership, and service. We are seeking curious, creative problem solvers who are able to think critically and seek to make a positive impact on our community.
The award remains in place for the duration of the student’s time in their specified division as long as commendable academic and conduct records are maintained. Examples include: Honor Scholarships awarded in the 6th grade, students will receive the same award in 7th and 8th grade. If the award is given in the 8th grade, the award is good for that year only. Upper School scholarships begin in the 9th grade and if awarded, are distributed in the same manner as the Middle School Division, meaning they continue on from the year it is awarded.
Number and amount of scholarships are awarded based on the candidate pool. To receive a Middle School Scholarship, a student must be a rising 6th, 7th or 8th grader at the time the application is made. To earn the Upper School Scholarship, a student must be a rising 9th, 10th, or 11th grader at the time application is submitted. No candidate may be a current or former student of DWS or be a sibling of a former Honor Scholarship recipient. All candidates must be present for testing on Saturday, February 12th. Personal interview (if required) will be at a later specified date and time.
