How likely is it that my child will be offered a place at Scots College?
Scots College has seen a significant increase in enquiries and enrolments in recent years, and we feel it is important to offer a clear enrolment process, as places are currently filling faster than in previous years. When we reach capacity, we institute a wait pool system. You will be notified if your application is in the wait pool.
What are your fees?
The 2023 fees for Scots College can be found on our Enrolment & Fees page.
All new families to the College are required to pay their monthly account by Direct Debit, unless alternative arrangements are made that are acceptable to the College.
Do you offer scholarships?
Scholarships are an important part of Scots College and limited places are kept open at Years 7 and 9 as part of our annual Scholarship process. Scholarship applications close on 31 March 2023 for both internal and external applicants, and students may apply no matter where they are in the enquiry or application process.
