For Australian students only

Scholarship Applications are now open. Scholarship Applications open in Term 4 each year.

The College participates in the ACER (Australian Council for Educational Research) Scholarship programme.

ACER Website

Scholarship applications open in Term 4 each year and are offered to Australian students entering Years 5, 7, 9, 10 and 11 in the following categories:

Academic (Years 5, 7, 9, 10 and 11)
Music (Years 7, 9, 10 and 11 only)
ICPA (Years 7, 9, 10 and 11 only)

Students sit the examination in the year prior to enrolment - if you wish to apply for entry into Year 7 then your child would sit the examination in Year 6.

Academic Scholarships are awarded primarily on the basis of the results obtained in the ACER scholarship examination. Applicants should have a commendable academic record supported by a CV or folio showing academic and co-curricular achievements.

The Bush Children's Education Foundation (BCEF) provides financial assistance to school-aged children living in outback New South Wales. In 2007, the Foundation extended its support to include tertiary students.

ICPA (Isolated Children's Parents Association) Scholarships are awarded on the basis of the results obtained in the ACER examination as well as the applicant's co-curricular achievements. A comprehensive folio or CV to show these achievements is required. If you are applying for an ICPA scholarship then you must be financial members of the organisation and remain so until your child leaves the College.

Music Scholarship Placement Procedures: See under 'All Music Applicants' below.

An interview with the Head of College is a further requirement for all scholarship applicants. All candidates not currently enrolled at ASC will be contacted upon receipt of their application to make a time for this interview to take place prior to the ACER examination. Enrolled students who are shortlisted for scholarship consideration following the release of the ACER results will be called for an interview prior to offers being made.

All scholarships are for the duration of the student's enrolment at All Saints' College Bathurst subject to the student fulfilling certain expectations. These are clearly outlined at the time of offer and include application to study, participation in the cocurricular life of the College and adherence to College rules. Music scholars will also be required to continue with their study of music and participate in ensemble rehearsals and performances as required.

There are examination centres in both city and rural areas and unless your child is sitting for a Music scholarship, they can sit at any centre which is convenient to you.

All Music Applicants

  • Must attend a music audition following the examination which means they are required to sit the examination at All Saints' College.
  • Must complete an 'Application for Music Scholarship'
  • Must ask their Music Teacher to complete a 'Student Profile' which the teacher must forward directly to All Saints' College. It must not be forwarded through the parent or student.
