Many families often believe that they must be wealthy in order for their child to enjoy the advantages of private school. While a private school education can be expensive, there are scholarships available which can ease the burden of expensive school tuitions and supplies.

  1. Scholarship Sources-Private school scholarships can be funded in a number of ways. For religious or parochial schools, local churches often contribute a portion of their yearly budget for scholarships, as well as other school-related expenses to help support a local private school. Corporations sometimes partner with private schools, offering money that can be used to fund scholarships for those children who might not be able to afford a private education. In some states, businesses are encouraged to donate funds through a corporate tuition tax credit, which allows the contributing company to reduce the amount of taxes they owe by every dollar they donate to a private educational institution.

  2. Qualifications-Unlike grants, scholarships aren't usually based on need. Instead, scholarships are given based on the talents of particular students. Students who are high achievers in academics, athletics, music, and/or the arts are typically considered for a private school scholarship. Because there is usually only a small amount of scholarship money available to award, the competition can be stiff.

  3. Application Process-The application process should be approached much like any other type of financial aid application routine. Before you begin, you'll need to contact the school or schools in which you are interested and ask for a scholarship packet. This packet should include any forms and deadlines that pertain to each scholarship that is available.
