Teacher recommendations can be requested through your SchoolAdmin account. Additional recommendations from other teachers, coaches, mentors, pastors, etc. are encouraged.

New and returning LCA students are eligible for merit-based scholarships. These are in addition to any need-based financial aid grants. This year, scholarship recipients received an average of $4,500 in merit-based scholarships ranging from $1,000 to $15,000. 

These scholarships have been established through the generosity of donors, often in honor or in memory of loved ones, to recognize deserving students.

Some scholarships require a completed application form while others are awarded by faculty nomination or our Admissions Team.  Applications and supporting documents must be received by February 1, 2021 for consideration.
