Annoucement

Congratulations to the Class of 2024, who have received a whopping $6,393,377 in merit aid or an average of $255,735 per student! This is an impressive bunch, and in addition to merit aid, they have some incredible statistics, including:

Students who qualified for the prestigious National Merit Finalist Scholarship: 2
The number of full-ride (full-pay) scholarships received: 5
The number of scholarships valued at $100,000 or above: 31

With all of the challenges surrounding higher education affordability, students need to be able to qualify for merit aid. Merit aid is any financial award a college offers based on a student’s academics and other desired traits such as their embrace of challenge, strength of character, and the depth of their extracurricular pursuits. A Riverstone education distinguishes students in all these areas, and the Class of 2024 showed it through the impressive amount of merit aid they were offered.

Congratulations to our graduates!
