Can I get a Scripps application fee waiver for a prospective student?
Scripps only accepts online applications, therefore there is no longer a fee waiver form. Prospective students simply check the ‘College-Approved Fee Waiver Box’ on the Common App. This allows any student to have her fee waived for a variety of reasons.
