Financial Assistance

As of August 2023, Foxcroft School has partnered with Clarity as our financial aid application provider. We have chosen Clarity in order to better serve both our current and prospective families. We are confident that this change is going to make the process of applying for financial assistance easier for families.

Additionally, Clarity removes the need to upload your 2022 W2 and 1040 by transferring them directly from the IRS. The entire application takes only about 20 minutes to complete.

Endowed Scholarships

Foxcroft is grateful to the many donors who, through their generosity and thoughtfulness, have provided the opportunity for future students to attend our boarding school. These funds do not require an additional application and are awarded based on the overall strength of the general admission application and on specific criteria stipulated by the donors. When paired with need-based assistance, named scholarships may replace portions of FA awards to permit the funds to be used to support other students.

Four-Year Full Scholarships

Two Extraordinary Opportunities

Through the incredible generosity of a loyal Foxcroft family and Lou Womack, Foxcroft is pleased to be able to offer two full scholarships honoring Mary Louise Leipheimer and Jess Y. Womack, respectively. These scholarships are for a maximum of four years each and become available when the current holder of the scholarship graduates. No additional application is required for these scholarships. 

Leipheimer Scholarship

Established in 2005 by a loyal Foxcroft family, the Mary Louise Leipheimer Scholarship is named in honor of Mary Louise Leipheimer. A former Head of School, Mary Lou devoted most of her professional career to Foxcroft before retiring in 2014. Her four-year scholarship is awarded to "a student who possesses the ability to work hard and play hard. This student demonstrates the qualities, often overlooked in young people, most exemplified by Mary Lou: honor, dedication, loyalty, humor, grace, and an understanding heart."

Womack Scholarship

Established in 2008 by Lou Womack, in memory of her husband Jess, the merit-based Jess Y. Womack II Scholarship makes a Foxcroft education more readily available to girls with enthusiasm for making the most of the Foxcroft experience.
