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 waitpool system. You will be notified if your application is in the waitpool.

What are your fees?

The 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 are available to students in Years 7 and 9, as well as Senior School students (Years 11-13). The Year 7 and Year 9 scholarship applications for 2025 closed on 4 April 2024 for both internal and external applicants. The 2025 applications for Senior School students closed on 31 May 2024.
