​Dear Seniors and Parents /Guardians of Seniors,
​
Below is the partial list of scholarships available to qualified students.  You can find many more scholarships on fastweb.com and through your student’s Naviance account, under Scholarships & Money (Colleges::Scholarships and Money::National Scholarship Search).
 
BHS Scholarships
 
The Brookline High School Scholarship Committee announces that applications are now available for tuition scholarships to Boston University (2 full-tuition renewable scholarships) and Northeastern University (2 half-tuition renewable scholarships).  Applications are available online at the BHS homepage under 2020 BHS Scholarship Application.  Applications must be completed ASAP. 
 
The deadline for applying for BHS scholarships for students attending ANY OTHER college is April 1. Please use the same application as above.
 
The Scholarship Committee would like parents to know that we use three criteria for choosing award recipients: academics, contributions and activities at BHS, and most importantly, unmet financial need.  There are no merit scholarships per se given out through this program.  To make fair decisions, the Committee requires that families fill out the CSS Profile financial aid form, available at CollegeBoard.org.  Please use code  #0424

We are continuing with the season of celebration and family time with Thanksgiving just ending and holiday events on the horizon for many students and their families. These times can represent joy for many and tough times for others. 
In addition, this time holds stress and anxiety for many students, especially 65% of our BHS seniors who are awaiting early application decisions from many colleges. Please be thoughtful and caring as we support our young people in their acceptances and happy times, and encourage and support students with not–so-positive stories. We are a rock-solid community for all our students and families.
