2027 Annual Scholarship applications are now open.

APPLY HERE

Our Boarding Scholarships celebrate students of strong character who come from rural, regional, and interstate locations across Australia.

Successful Boarding Scholarship candidates demonstrate the following: 

  • the ability to make a positive and significant contribution to the life of the School and above all to boarding
  • an exemplary work ethic
  • academic potential
  • strong co-curricular engagement
  • they would not otherwise be able to attend the School as a boarder without the financial support of a scholarship 

Ideally, students will enter the School at Year 7 or Year 9, but applications are also welcomed for entry to Years 8, 10, and 11, subject to availability.

Eligibility

You are eligible to apply for a boarding scholarship if: 

  • you live regionally, rurally, or interstate (outside the Melbourne metropolitan area)
  • you understand that the structure of boarding at Melbourne Grammar School is a full-time offering, meaning students are generally expected to remain in the boarding house over weekends
