Merit Based Scholarship - nancial award granted to a student (usually within the school) based on high achievement in academics, music, art, sport or other. May or may not cover the total cost of school fees but often is a lump sum token award. Financial Scholarship - nancial award granted to a student based on nancial need, and often scholastic achievement as well. Often these awards will cover the total amount of school fees as well as other ancillary costs such as books, uniforms and school trips.
