Tips for the application process
- Start the scholarship search early – get started on the process as soon as applications open to ensure your child has enough time to prepare their application
- Encourage your child to apply for all of the scholarships they are eligible for – students will not be offered more than one scholarship, however applying for all relevant scholarships will increase your child’s opportunities for receiving a scholarship
- Encourage your child to participate in activities outside of the classroom – if your child is looking to apply for a merit or leadership based scholarship, we look for well-rounded students who are involved in activities and programs that are meaningful to them (not just the required community service hours through school)
- If edits need to be made to an ‘in progress’ application, applicants can log in to edit and submit here.
Portfolio toolkit
Packed with examples, tips, and templates, the Portfolio entry toolkit is your go-to resource for compiling a compelling portfolio. This simple step-by-step guide takes you through the process of assembling your documents, helping you best demonstrate your unique strengths and qualifications.
