Linden Hall is pleased to offer merit scholarships of up to 25% of tuition to top applicants, regardless of financial need Merit scholarships honor incoming students who have demonstrated genuinely exceptional achievement both inside and outside the classroom. Please refer to our complete merit scholarship policy for information on award amounts and requirements.
Most scholarships are given to applicants who submit their applications for Priority Admission by January 15th. Starting in March, any remaining merit scholarships are given out on a rolling basis.
Contact the Admissions Office at (717) 626-8512 x158 or admissions@lindenhall. org for more information on scholarships and financial aid.
An excellent education is an investment in your daughters future. Linden Hall is dedicated to working in partnership with parents to make our excellent education available, and provides need-based financial aid to families who otherwise would not be able to pay tuition.
Each year that a family proves financial need through the application process, financial aid is renewed. All families are eligible to apply for need-based financial aid, regardless of citizenship.
You must apply online via School and Student Services (SSS) at the same time you apply for admission to be considered for need-based financial aid. Our fair and objective process considers each family’s unique situation when determining ability to pay.
Our largest packages are competitively priced and given out in the Priority Admission round. Beginning in March, any remaining financial aid is given out on a first-come, first-served basis until it is completely used up. If you will require more than 50% of the cost of tuition in financial aid, we encourage you to contact the Admission Office prior to beginning your admission application to check availability

Outside Scholarships and Other Financial Assistance
Families sometimes ask us about other scholarship or grant opportunities. Linden Hall does not maintain a list of outside scholarships or loan providers, nor do we recommend any particular databases or organizations. However, one place families may wish to start their search is with School and Student Services (SSS), the financial aid management service that Linden Hall uses to analyze and process need-based financial aid applications. SSS lists some organizations and search strategies for outside financial support on their website. Please note that Linden Hall does not provide or offer educational loans as part of our financial assistance program, and all of our support is grant money that does not need to be repaid to the school.
