BETHLEHEM, Pa. - s4story -- Moravian Academy has announced a new Impact Scholarship that will award two incoming Upper School students full tuition to attend the school's Merle-Smith Campus (grades 9-12) beginning in the 2026–27 academic year.

Valued at approximately $40,000 per student annually, the scholarship is designed to attract high-achieving students who demonstrate strong academic performance, leadership potential and a desire to contribute meaningfully to their school community.

Although the scholarship is open to all new applicants who complete the admissions process, priority consideration will be given to students entering ninth grade.

In addition to the Impact Scholarship, Moravian Academy is offering a $500 referral award to any family who refers a student who goes on to enroll in the upper school, regardless of whether that student receives a scholarship or merit award.
