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.
