Year 7 CGS Foundation Scholarships for Academic Excellence
Up to four scholarships worth 20% of the tuition fee over six years are open to new or current students seeking to enter Year 7. At least two of these may be awarded to external applicants. The Scholarship is determined following the results of an Academic Exam, conducted by an external examiner.
Music Scholarships
Year 7 CGS Foundation Scholarship for Musical Excellence
CGS places a high value on the musical life of the School and seeks to nurture outstanding musicians through the Scholarship programme. One scholarship worth 20% of the tuition fee for up to six years is open to new or current students seeking to enter Year 7. Applicants must have passed a minimum Grade 6 music examination and undertake an interview and audition.
Music scholars are required to maintain academic music as an elective subject in Years 8 – 12 and are expected to participate in School musical ensembles, performances and undertake tuition either at the School or externally as approved by the Director of Music.
For further details about Music Scholarships please contact the Music Department via music@cgs.act.edu.au
Please Note: Whether or not they win a scholarship, new applicants to the School for Years 7 and 11, whose academic scholarship examination results place them in the top 25% of all external scholarship applicants for their year group, will be given first priority offers of places at the School (subject to satisfying the normal entry criteria and application procedures outlined in the School’s Admissions Policy).
