Hill Scholarships-Midland Reception & Testing

Hill Scholarships - Midland
The Robert J. Hill Scholarship offers merit-based grants that are awarded annually to rising 9th, 10th, or 11th grade students from Midland and the surrounding counties. The scholarship was made possible by the generosity of Mr. Robert Currie, a 1940 Cranbrook alumnus from Midland who wished to memorialize one of his most influential teachers. New boarding students will be selected to receive scholarships on the basis of excellent academic performance, testing, recommendations, special talents, and personal qualities. The top applicant will receive a $20,000 scholarship, and runners up will be awarded a $7,500 scholarship. Recipients will continue to be given the Hill Scholarship every year until graduation from Cranbrook Schools.
