Scholarships

We offer scholarships based on many criteria, including area of talent and personal circumstances. 

We welcome applications from talented boys who believe they can make a positive contribution to the BGS community.

The number of Scholarships awarded each year is dependent upon the quality of the applicants and the availability of places.

Scholarships may only be awarded to students who are permanent residents or citizens of Australia.

Opening dates occur throughout the year, depending on the scholarship.

We recommend applying early, as scholarships may close before the advertised deadline.
