2012 IB Diploma Scholarships - Apply now
Applications are now invited from 2012 Year 12 students (closes 30 January).
Scots College is delighted to be able to offer a number of IB Scholarships to new Year 12 students for study in the 2012 academic year, commencing in Term 1, 2012.
The scholarship(s) are open to students not currently enrolled at the College who wish to undertake study in the International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma programme.
The scholarship(s) provide a percentage of annual school fees and the level of scholarship support is awarded on a needs-based, case-by-case basis.
“What sort of boys are we looking for when we offer these scholarships? It’s hard to pin down – sometimes it’s just that X Factor. We’re looking for the classic all-rounder with great potential. His strengths might lie in the classroom, but equally it could be the sports field, music, the creative arts, IT or he may be a young entrepreneur with a great eye for business.”
“Whatever his passion, he will be a genuine self-starter, with a real energy for life that, given the right guidance and support, will see him leave Scots College as a confident young man ready for whatever life might throw at him. We are looking for an individual who wants to fulfil his potential.”
About the IB Diploma
The IB Diploma is a two year qualification students in the Senior School at Scots can elect to take in Years 12-13 as an alternative to NCEA. We offer a dual-pathway education which means our students can choose to take either the IB or NCEA qualification. They are essentially two different approaches to learning, so it’s really about each student selecting the best qualification for their interests, learning style and aspirations.
The other advantage of the IB Diploma is that it is a qualification recognised and welcomed by the world’s leading universities, and guarantees that the education you receive here at Scots in Strathmore, Wellington is on par with the best international schools worldwide.
