RENEWAL and NEW students may apply now for a Gardiner Scholarship for the 2021-22 school year by logging in below. Note: Renewal students will have funding priority until April 30, 2021.

General Application Information:
As always, funding is limited, and applications are processed based on the following priority:

  • * Renewal students will have funding priority until April 30, 2021.
  • * Once the funding priority deadline (4/30/2021) for RENEWAL students has passed, depending on available funding, applications will be processed in this order: 1) students who were on the 2020-21 Gardiner Scholarship waitlist and 2) new and renewal students in the order they are determined eligible.
  • * Applications are processed on a first-come, first-served basis. Within the above priority groups, students will be awarded based on the date and time eligibility was determined. If funding is not available at the time an award determination is made, the student may be placed on the waitlist.
