Overview
We believe that every young woman deserves the opportunity to wear the St Hilda’s School uniform. The newly-created Foundation Scholarship provides students with a unique St Hilda’s experience, where it otherwise wouldn't be possible.
The Scholarship provides full remission of tuition fees, for one student entering Year 10 in 2025.
Eligibility
It is expected that the St Hilda’s Foundation Scholarship Recipient will maintain a high level of achievement and will consistently contribute and display commitment to St Hilda’s School life.
This encompasses regular attendance at training sessions/lessons and participating in relevant events as well as consistently representing self, School and the Foundation with honour and pride.
Applicants must have the drive to succeed and appetite to achieve in the areas of academic, co-curricular and the life of the school.
The St Hilda’s Foundation is open to a new day student in Year 10 each year. The successful applicant will be required to act as an ambassador for St Hilda’s School and St Hilda’s Foundation.
The successful applicant must be an Australian Citizen or Permanent Resident of Australia.

Sit the Scholarship testing and Music Auditions (if applicable). Results from the Scholarship testing provide comparable results for new and current students. Historically, scholarship interviews have been offered to students who achieve at an exemplary level in the Edutest. The invitation to attend a scholarship interview does not guarantee a scholarship offer. Candidates will be contacted by April with the outcome of their scholarship application.
Shortlisted students who are invited to attend an interview will be required to complete the St Hilda’s School Enrolment Application.
