The Entrance Scholarship Selection Committee primarily reviews the admission average and Grade 12 course levels (with Grade 11 performance considered where relevant), and may also weigh leadership, extracurricular involvement, geographical location and community engagement depending on the specific award's criteria. The Entrance Bursary Selection Committee considers the family's capacity to contribute financially, the applicant's employment situation, and any special needs or requirements.
