Scholarships

Scholarships from TBB Scholarships, Inc. are available to young women who are seniors in high school and reside and/or go to school in Brookline, Newton, or Wellesley, Massachusetts. We award scholarships to four or five new applicants per year, and financial support normally continues through four years. Scholarships are based on both merit and financial need. Scholarships are typically $4,000 for the first year and increase to as much as $7,000 by the fourth year. .

Awardees are expected to keep in contact with their advisers and are asked to attend two events each year, a Holiday Tea in December and a luncheon in early June. They are also required to send copies of their semester grade reports to their adviser each year.

Applications must be received no later than February 28th, 2024, and all supporting material, such as transcripts and recommendations, must be received by March 10, 2024. The Committee will invite candidates for interviews to be held during the week of school vacation, April 15-19, 2024.
