Academic, Music and Fine Arts

Academic Scholarships
Academic Scholarships are based on the High School Placement Test (HSPT), which will be taken on Sat., December 12th, 2009 from 9 a.m. to noon. No formal application needs to be submitted. Students that list Seton Keough as their first choice have first consideration.

How does Seton Keough determine who gets a scholarship?
The girls who score in the top 10 percent on the HSPT will be considered for scholarship. When Seton Keough receives the test results, profiles are compiled on each student in the top ten percent. The profile will include the Seton Keough application for admission, the writing sample from the application, the Archdiocesan application for admission, the elementary school transcripts including standardized testing (students must request that their current school forward this information to Seton Keough), and the interview form. Transcripts should include the student’s subjects and grades, as well as scores on previously taken standardized tests. The Admissions Committee then determines who receives academic scholarships.

Music Scholarships
Be sure to stop by the Music Department table during Open House to pick up a music scholarship application and criteria form or you may download a form here. Music & vocal scholarship auditions are by appointment only. Audition appointments will be scheduled by calling our Music Director, Ms. Kathy Krawczyk at (410) 646–4444, x1250. Audition forms are due to the school by Fri., Jan. 15, 2010. The audition date is Sat., Feb. 6, 2010 from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.

Fine Arts Scholarship
Seton Keough offers the Anna E. Fehl Memorial Scholarship for Fine Arts. Students interested in submitting art portfolios for Fine Arts Scholarships may leave them at Seton Keough's reception desk.
